  Description     : Show thumbnails in terminal using sixel graphics

Like "ls", but for images.
.
Features include:
- Detects if your terminal can display SIXEL graphics inline.
- Works great over SSH.
- Non-bitmap graphics often work fine (.svg, .eps, .pdf, .xcf).
- Automatically detects if your terminal, like xterm, can increase the number
  of color registers to improve the image quality and does so.
- Automatically detects terminal's foreground and background colors.
- In terminals that support `dtterm WindowOps`, the number of tiles per
  row will adjust appropriately to the window width.
- If there are many images in a directory (>21), lsix will display them one row
  at a time so you don't need to wait for the entire montage to be created.
- Filenames that are too long will be wrapped before passing into
  ImageMagick's montage to avoid jumbling on top of one another.
- Easily change things like width of each tile in the montage, font family, and
  point size by editing simple variables at the top of the file. (Tip: try
  convert -list font to see what fonts you have on your machine.)
- Unicode filenames work fine, as long as your font has the glyphs.

It's a single shell script whose only dependency is ImageMagick's montage
program. I intend to maintain it in the debian namespace, and am happy to have
someone sponsor it.
