As I understand it, most all the open source software is based on dcraw - so they're going to have similar capabilities with different interfaces and some extensions.

and with similar limitations.

what limitations are these?

In the past, I've found dcraw useful to get a quick look at things by extracting the jpeg thumbnail (dcraw -e).

once again, more work than needed. on a mac, there's no need to run anything (especially using a command line). a simple tap of the space bar gives a quick look of nearly any file (photos, pdfs, spreadsheets, zip files and much more), which is why it's called quick look.

So how does quick look know which file you would like to see?
