pixterm

Image printing in the terminal. See also: chafa, catimg. More information: https://github.com/eliukblau/pixterm.

  • Render a static image directly in the terminal:

pixterm {{path/to/file}}

  • Use the image's original aspect ratio:

pixterm -s 2 {{path/to/file}}

  • Specify a custom aspect ratio using a specific number of [t]erminal [r]ows and [c]olumns:

pixterm -tr {{24}} -tc {{80}} {{path/to/file}}

  • Filter the output with a [m]atte background color and character [d]ithering:

pixterm -m {{000000}} -d 2 {{path/to/file}}
