lsix and xterm

In .Xresources

! XTERM
xterm*faceName: FantasqueSansMono-Regular
xterm*faceSize: 12

Start xterm with

xterm -ti vt340 -sh 6

vt340 seem to enable sixel support.

Get the lsix bash script.

Like “ls”, but for images. Shows thumbnails in terminal using sixel graphics.

Default urxvt can’t and won’t.

Notes: this is how lsix checks for sixel support:
