Images don't show in dired

Open amusingimpala75 opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

insert-image of an image doesn't view in a dired buffer, but it does in a lisp-mode buffer. Specifically, looking up the mode hierarchy, it works in lisp-mode and lisp-data-mode but not prog-mode. This is on Emacs 30.0.93 in NixOS running inside Windows Subsystem for Linux, which is not built with imagemagick support (although that seems to be the standard nowadays?).

Attached is an example of it not working. I ran the demo interactive function between the two screenshots.
