+.SH DESCRIPTION
+ggaze (GNOME Gaze) is a small, fast, native image viewer for Fedora Linux,
+written in C with GTK4. It opens a file or folder, shows a thumbnail grid,
+and lets you flip through the shoot with vi-style keys, check EXIF, trash
+rejects, and move on. No library, no database, no sidecars.
