Wow! Thanks. That one works really well.Only $5 (less if you take
advantage of the periodic iTunes gift card sales).

+ Fast, native Mac app
   • supports gestures (pinch to zoom, etc.)
   • suports modern Full Screen
   • Built-in quicklook generator (seems fast and stable so far)
+ auto white border cropping with tolerance adjustment (I wish it had
an option to leave a small border)
+ customizable gap in two-page mode
+ customizable caching (local and AFP/SMB)
+ very customizable image viewer (default open modes, open next/prev
file, etc.)
+ graphics adjustments (auto level, etc. but switches to discrete
processor if available, I try to avoid that on laptops when possiible)
+ Handles RAR v5.


- doesn't handle WebP (but Simple Comic didn't either so not great but
workable; doesn't fail silently but doesn't say cause i.e. unknown
image format)
