Viu

Jul 20, 2023

Simple terminal image viewer written in Rust

Small command-line application to view images from the terminal written in Rust. It uses lower half blocks \u2584 to fit 2 pixels into a single cell by adjusting foreground and background colours accordingly.

When run, viu will check the value of $COLORTERM. If it contains either truecolor or 24bit, truecolor 16 million colors will be used. If not, it will fallback to using only ansi256.
