Windows Console now supports Sixel #33

Open NickAcPT opened 6 days ago

NickAcPT commented 6 days ago

It seems that Sixel support in the Windows Terminal is being worked on, and a PR for Sixel support in conhost has been merged (PR https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/pull/17421).

Just to be clear, that PR adds Sixel support to conhost (that's the old Windows console). It's not available in Windows Terminal yet.

Whoops, my bad! In that case however, does the Windows Console section need updating then?

EDIT: I went ahead and updated the title + initial post to reflect the actual changes I mentioned.

I'm not sure what exactly the criteria are for claiming sixel support on this site. Right now we've got a PR committed, and technically anyone could download the nightly build and use it if they really wanted to, but it'll be some time before it makes its way into the inbox Windows console which most users have access to. So for now you may want to hold off on claiming anything, or at least include a massive disclaimer clarifying that it's not generally available (and it's possible it might never be).
