# img-rnd, random image browser

**img-rnd** is a set of tools that allow to create shortcuts to folders of images
and randomly browse them.
The program works best with folders filled with several picture subfolders,
like photo collections.

**img-rnd** is written by Nicolas Mougin (mougino@free.fr).
