Description bugReporter92 2013-04-13 14:32:42 UTC 
Problem description: 
The command line option --view is documented in the output of 
lowriter --help
but if I use the following command
lowriter --view <file>
in any context the command line just displays a blank line for ever. 

Steps to reproduce:
1. lowriter --view <file>

Current behavior:
The command never returns control to the shell, and no UI elements are viewed.

Expected behavior:
The document would be opened in a temporary read only mode

              
Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 3.6.2.2 release
