Better previews on Wayland with sixel support #43

Closed cain-dev closed 2 years ago

cain-dev commented 2 years ago

Hi, i've been testing the lfimg and it works perfect out of the box for x but not so much for Wayland (at least in my experience).

I am using foot as my main terminal and i know that some terminals have sixels support (foot being one of them of course), and on Wayland most tools to image preview don't work as good as x.

Is it possible to get sixels support for preview on foot terminal (and maybe some way to generate cache for this protocol)?

Thanks

Edit:

There is this version of ranger with sixels preview support, i don't know if can help for something

Sorry but I will never support Wayland officially. You're welcome to send a pull request but I doubt it'll get merged.
