How to bring an image inside a GUI? Is this possible in BashScript or learn a new language?
I am developing my first beautiful application in Bashscript, hmm ...
So, I start with it some kind of GUI, zenity
from this first try. But I want to bring visual art without any function to the GUI and also just visual art. I want the final application to run cross-os.
How to simply show an image inside a GUI window? (Maybe with the OK button or nothing, just show the image for a while).
Any "lightweight" solution for this? In BashScript or something else? Any solution, especially in C or other languages, is also greatly appreciated ...
Thanks for your attention, you have a nice day.
I found Glade with gtk, but you still need to go deeper. Any other solution?
EDIT
I want the final application to run as cross-os.
Hey ... Pretty expensive ... I found a crazy guy like me , he wants a GUK GUI with Bashscript! I'm not the only crazy dude in the world lol ....
And I want a "simple" solution, simply because that's what I need for my program is very simple . The GUI shows an image, buttons and does. Just to clarify.

Use the command display
in ImageMagick
:
$ display img.png
It will display the image in the GUI window.

Bash is not a language for writing graphical applications. There are extensions like dialog, zenity and others that allow you to use a GUI or TUI to accept input for further bash processing, but these things are very limited. You need to choose a toolkit like GTK, QT or wxWidgets. Most high level scripting languages will have bindings for all the GUI tools I've proven for examples (python, ruby, perl).
