“KLook is the latest application that the developers have
written for the distribution. It is an attempt, and a very good one
at that, to replicate the features of a similar application on Mac
OS X in a Linux desktop. What KLook does, is give you the ability
to view images, text files (.txt), listen to audio and play video
files from one application in a slideshow fashion.

“Currently, it can be used to view images in png and jpg
formats, listen to audio and video files supported by Phonon, and
view text files. Support for reading PDF files is just around the
corner. Starting KLook is pretty simple. Just select the files you
want to view or play and press the Space bar on the keyboard.”
