a feature that seems to be missing from EoG is a "--geometry
WidthxHeight+Xpos+Ypos" parameter
similar to what gnome-terminal has (and IIRC 25 years ago all X-Windows
programs had)
it would be a very welcome addition for the following reason
when doing something like "eog *.jpg" on a directory of photo's, the
orientation and size of the first picture will determine the window
size, however if the orientation of the next photo is different, you
will get gray bands and a zoomed-out image
with a --geometry parameter, you could open photos in a square window by
defining something like 'alias eog="eog --geometry 720x720"'
an alternative way would be to have a "--square" parameter that would
open in a square window as large as the longest side of the photo
I started looking into adding this feature to the source myself and
rebuilding the code, but if you're not familiar with all the required
libraries and dependencies the latter appears to be not for the faint of
heart
