+.SH STATUS BAR
+The information displayed on the left side of the status bar can be replaced
+with the output of a user-provided script, which is called by nsxiv whenever an
+image gets loaded. The path of this script is
+.I $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nsxiv/exec/image-info
+and the arguments given to it are: 1) path to image file, 2) image width,
+3) image height.
+.P
+There is also an example script installed together with nsxiv as
+.IR PREFIX/share/nsxiv/exec/image-info .
+.SH EXTERNAL KEY HANDLER
+Additional external keyboard commands can be defined using a handler program
+located in
+.IR $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nsxiv/exec/key-handler .
+The handler is invoked by pressing
+.BR Ctrl-x .
+The next key combo is passed as its first argument. Passed via stdin are the
+images to act upon, one path per line: all marked images, if in thumbnail mode
+and at least one image has been marked, otherwise the current image.
+nsxiv(1) will block until the handler terminates. It then checks which images
+have been modified and reloads them.
+
+The key combo argument has the following form: "[C-][M-][S-]KEY",
+where C/M/S indicate Ctrl/Meta(Alt)/Shift modifier states and KEY is the X
+keysym as listed in /usr/include/X11/keysymdef.h without the "XK_" prefix.
+
+There is also an example script installed together with nsxiv as
+.IR PREFIX/share/nsxiv/exec/key-handler .
+.SH THUMBNAIL CACHING
+nsxiv stores all thumbnails under
+.IR $XDG_CACHE_HOME/nsxiv/ .
+.P
+Use the command line option
+.I \-c
+to remove all orphaned cache files. Additionally, run the following command
+afterwards inside the cache directory to remove empty subdirectories:
+.P
+.RS
+find . \-depth \-type d \-empty ! \-name '.' \-exec rmdir {} \\;
