Just realized I was running a fairly old version of the [chawan] terminal browser, 0.1. Now yoinked the latest stuff from the git repo (0.4-dev), and it seems to fix a few things, based on a cursory glance.

Super neat project! Terminal web browser with image (#sixel) and #CSS support!

I’m tinkering with #geminiprotocol. I’ve installed #Amfora so I can use sites that require identity certs. The whole trust first on use (tofu) is batshit (says the idiot who always blindly trusts ssh host verification), but it’s kinda neat. #lagrange definitely has the whole ergonomics of identity certs lock down not a whiff of openssl command line magicks. Would’ve preferred to stick with bombadillo (it’s suports #GopherProtocol and #fingerprotocol), but can’t do certs). I would love to see a tui that can renders images using #sixel

I just discovered that you can drag n drop images rendered in #iTerm2 using #sixel. If you drag the image out of the terminal you get a file. If you then cat the file ... well, I was expecting an image, because sixel, but apparently not. How odd.

I made a little extension to my Python-based LaTeX math renderer so it can be used to draw equations and Sympy expressions directly in the terminal as sixel graphics. Install with `pip install sixelmath` and give it a try! (in a sixel-supported terminal, of course).

Al fin - Una solución terminal a la guerra de navegadores

Un browser desde la terminal con capacidad Sixel lleno de características para quienes prefieren evitar los asistentes de IA

Los usuarios de la web de los viejos tiempos recordarán Lynx, un navegador de solo texto que corría desde la terminal. Ahora hay un navegador web Sixel-compatbile que corre completo de la terminal, y tiene todas las características modernas y gráficas que esperarías.

#TIL about #brow6el (https://codeberg.org/janantos/brow6el) a #CLI web #browser that uses #sixel and runs in any sixel-compatible terminal.

Here are a couple of examples of brow6el in #WezTerm on #Ubuntu 24.04

Wow, I’ve just tried #brow6el - a #sixel based terminal (!) web browser - on one of classic Polish portals, packed with ads and mashup JS/HTML. And it… works!

Sixel is an old (DEC times) but very clever protocol for displaying 6-bit graphics right in terminal window, Brow6el is a Chromium-engine using Sixel graphics to render the pages. So essentially you’ve got a fully functional graphical (!) web browser in a text terminal. Because it’s still Chromium, this particular website uses ~500 MB of RAM.

Surprisingly, the build process on Ubuntu is also rather trivial and takes ~5 min (thanks to the use of prebuilt Chromium binary I suppose)

Well this is an incredibly cool demo in Windows Terminal using #libsixel #Sixel

It is time to start migrating my #oss code to #codeberg and why not to start with something funny and new. This is my toy project. Let me introduce #brow6el, very basic Linux terminal #webbrowser based on Chromium CEF with #sixel rendering. Yes you can have fully graphical browser in #Linux terminal if you have sixel support. No binary files are available yet, but build is pretty simple and documented. Be aware it just POC with glitches here and there, so be nice to me. But it has js console ;-) if I will have time, I will add bookmarks. https://codeberg.org/janantos/brow6el

Ah, the #SIXEL #revolution is here! 🚀 Now you can enjoy the #retro excitement of running an X server on your #terminal, because who wouldn't want to squint at pixelated #graphics in 2023? 🤦‍♂️ Meanwhile, real developers are busy inventing #AI that writes code while you nap. 💤🔧

When modern meet history, I have written for my work linux terminal #AI chat terminal with #sixel support (yep they were introduced in 1979). #gptoss120b is hosted with #llamacpp and client is written with python and Microsoft Autogen. For graphics output I am using libsixel-tools and all that is wrapped with Rich library. Python code is executed in #podman container. Btw all that is running on HP ZBook Ultra G1a 14 laptop. Yep I know it is just 500 lines of glue code.

Llega ese momento del año en el que pienso que debería usar otra #terminal. Verán, luego de un breve pero lindo romance con #Alacritty creo que me merezco una terminal que soporte #TerminalGraphicsProtocol o una cosa llamada #sixel que entiendo que hace lo mismo.

¿Ustedes qué terminal usan?

🧵

eza --icons is super cool, but a utility that displayed larger file icons using something like #sixel would be crazy cool.

@justine @brynet

What could #sixel support specifically entail that could be impacted by pledge()? #xterm is still only drawing pixels into pixmaps, sixel mode or otherwise.

Unwillingness to turn on a new (since 2013) not-very-well-tested-until-recently feature, almost certainly. NetBSD delayed turning it on until 2020. (Debian went straight for turning it on in 2013, by contrast.) But I don't see how pledge() would have had any hand in the decision.

#OpenBSD

@justine @brynet

This issue mentions that there's a total of two terminal emulators in #OpenBSD that support #sixel, but doesn't say what they are. XD
