Ben, Thanks. It's correct after I test last evening. I found a gview under /usr/local/bin, and another gview under /usr/X11R6/bin The first one is Vim, the second one is what I asked - an ACDsee look-like image viewer. Now I pkg_delete the vim and launch gview by using /usr/X11R6/bin/gview, then I got what I need. Thank you all for suggesting.
