Behold the revolutionary #Chafa, where 21st-century #tech meets the artistic flair of a 1980s dot matrix printer. 🎨✨ Get ready to squint in awe at "reasonable approximations" of images, because who needs high-res when you have ANSI X3.64? 🙄🤦‍♂️

What about chafa / Sixel?

https://hpjansson.org/chafa/

Albeit not all terminal emulators do support Sixel, and it does not work in the console, AFAIU.

This program written in C will render the matrix effect in the terminal, while rendering an image, allowing animation of this image in one or two dimensions.

Image rendering is accomplished with the help of chafa:

@frigginglorious Glad to hear it! There are bindings for Python and Javascript (via wasm) too. If you have questions, come find us on Matrix or IRC (#chafa).

How to display an image in a console...

Learning about new old stuff... or old new stuff. I'm not sure which.

#chafa

#TIL about #lsix (https://github.com/hackerb9/lsix) and calling #xterm with the option "-ti vt340" to be able to display inline images inside an xterm—thanks to lsix having just arrived in #DebianUnstable: https://packages.debian.org/sid/lsix

These inline images (or the backend used to display them) seem to be called #sixel graphics. And they're said to work transparently through SSH. Maybe better than #chafa or #catimg.

#BloomScrolling on the terminal! 😉

GitHub - hackerb9/lsix: Like "ls", but for images. Shows thumbnails in terminal using sixel graphics.
