Hello Tavis, I love that name! It reminds me of beautiful music, or is it the Ormandy last name.
I cannot find an "av" package what Jude suggested. You, Tavis, mentioned adding to mailcap this line: image/png; img2sixel -- %s | less -r; nametemplate=%s.png; needsterminal I'm guessing - and I realize that's gotten me into the deep fryer more than once... that you can make more lines in mailcap based on that line for different picture formats -- stop me if you hear hot oil bubbling and David screaming... image/jpg; img2sixel -- %s | less -r; nametemplate=%s.png; needsterminal image/jpeg; img2sixel -- %s | less -r; nametemplate=%s.png; needsterminal image/gif; img2sixel -- %s | less -r; nametemplate=%s.png; needsterminal I find a package called "libsixel" in Slackware and I'm installing that. Thanks and say "Hello to Eugene Ormandy" he was a great favorite of a friend of mine who was born in Budapest.
