[FEAT] Add support for Foot terminal PNG image render #769

Closed SherLock707 closed 7 months ago

SherLock707 commented 7 months ago

Current state:

"logo": {
    "type": "auto",
    "source": "/home/user/joi.png",
    "width": 40,
    "height": 13,
    "padding": {
        "top": 3,
        "left": 2,
        "right": 2
    }

image

if "type": "sixel", It renders black background for PNGs image

Wanted state:

This is kitty with auto type: image

Hoping for support on Foot terminal.

Why the change is sensible:

Right now no good way of rendering PNG on Foot terminal via Fastfetch. Hoping to pair fastest fetch cli with fastest terminal emulator.

Thank you

sixel and kitty are graphic protocols which must be supported by terminals themselves. foot supports only sixel.

See this commit for rendering transparent backgrounds.
