Re: image-dired shows images as text

[winuser]

Thanks for your patience
my question is this :
when I visit a file in image-dired, should i get an image on screen ?
I saw the file as text and the minibuffer came back with this :

 > Repeat this command to go back to displaying the file as text

Do I have to use an external program to view a picture ?

PS not sure what is (XPM)
