Thanks for the great project! Can it display image?

This could be possible with sixel. I'm not sure how to disable character escaping though, it's wiping out \033s...

Image support was just added to the master branch in the form of the image widget. It currently has 3 modes: regular, monochrome, and inverted monochrome. Check out the example image widget in the _examples folder. You can pass it an image URL and it'll display it in the terminal or it'll display a default image.

Currently, it renders images by converting them to various characters and adding color to them, but I would like to try and get sixel to work. I'm going to close issue, but I opened #213 to keep track of adding sixel support.
