User-defined Command
This is most powerful action in worker. You can use any external program in worker.
Options:

- With apostrophe
The selected items will be used set in quotation marks.
- Separate each item
The defined command will be performed on every item separately.
- Recursive
The command will be performed on every file in the subdirectories.
- Start mode
- Normal mode
Usable for programs like picture viewers. If the program uses the textmode for requests you should not use this mode because there is no possibility to make inputs.
- Console mode
The program will be executed in a terminal so you can perform textinputs.
- Console mode with wait for any-key
As described above but you have to press return after execution. This lets you see the output.
- Display output
After the execution the program-output will be displayed. But you have to define an existing viewer because not every system contains 'xmessage', which I use by default.
Write the command, with needed flags, in the textfield.
For example:
xv {f}
displays the selected file with xv. But you do not have to fill in the flags by hand. Just place the cursor in the right position and click button 5.. A requester appears where you can choose the correct flag.
-> Flags
The last textfield offers you the possibility to name a viewer for the output. The string has to contain %s, because the name of the outputfile will be filled in there.
