Feature request: Image support
hi i would like to see image embeds being shown in the client itself instead of needing a external viewer for it
w3m ,the terminal browser does this: https://github.com/tokuhirom/w3m/blob/master/w3mimg/x11/x11_w3mimg.c edit: this is x11-only though... and depends on xterm
The implementation I attempted used SIXEL instead. Most terminals still don't support this standard, but actually printing the SIXEL escape sequences to the correct location and having it scroll does not seem easy, at least to me. The code that actually downloads and translates images to SIXEL escape sequences is done, and avalible in the "images" branch on my fork (after I push what I've pulled together tonight).
Here is a ranger issue #mentioning this:https://github.com/ranger/ranger/issues/1476 It mentions imv
A Kitty based implementation with something like icat would be neat, but that would probably have to be implemented in a completely different way
If this is implemented, it should definitely use ueberzug in my opinion. It would probably be complicated, though. For now, as a workaround, there should be a hotkey to open the link to an image in your preferred image viewer.
Discordo already uses xdg-open for Linux, open for OSX and start for Windows to open attachments in the default image viewer and links in the default browser.
6cord had sixel support then why not discordo?
6cord actually did not have SIXEL support. As @DremOSDeveloperTeam pointed out, supporting SIXEL in something like tview is tedious work.
That said, tcell-sixel could be of use for that. foot also supports SIXEL.
@diamondburned it looks pretty good. Videos could also be implemented (but it would require some work haha)
Animated images that can move in a terminal efficiently is precisely what the Kitty graphics protocol was invented to do.

Fuck you why are you obsessed with kitty shitty ?

Do you honestly think that Sixel is as good as Kitty's protocol?

Nope, I don't think sixel is good
SIXEL IS BEST

You need a dose of copium

It's garbage that does not work :upside_down_face:
Try asking the developer and see what they have to say about it.
P/S: I'm not going to babysit this issue (it's not my issue), but I would much rather we maintain a constructive tone rather than yelling "dose of copium" at someone else. I don't think that's at all productive or helpful to anyone.
