Sixel support #112

Open smartmic opened 6 months ago

smartmic commented 6 months ago

I understand that sixel support is experimental, but I could not manage any image to display in wayst terminal (using Terminal Image Protocol from kitty works … sometimes). I tried both using img2sixel from libsixel and the sixelgd terminal output from gnuplot. Using gnuplot in terminal is currently the main reason I strive for sixel support.

Any hints on using sixel graphics successful and are the plans for more support in the future?

gnuplot works in the terminal with kitty images just fine. You dont need sixels. https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/integrations/#tool-gnuplot
