How to process the output files which paths contains spaces? The output can not be customized by the findimagedupes ?

Hello,

1)

findimagedupes outputs:

/path/ file name뷰á _ .jpg /path/ file뷰š -name .jpeg

so when i want to: A) remove first file B) open all paths inside viewer "gwenview"

i can not if i am not an awk/sed poweruser. Can you please suggest how to do it? Problem is the lack of unique separator and spaces in paths. I have been asking ChatGPT, but no luck.

2)

It would be handy if there is a switch where user can define prefix, suffix and the path separator.

For example --outprefix 'gwenview "' --outpathseparator '" "' --outsuffix '"'

Btw. I would expect output paths to be by default separated with quotation marks. newline - one per line

I am sorry if this is stupid or too demanding. You have mentioned that showing usage case examples incl. more complex commands may be handy inside manual / under -h switch.
