sixel-gnuplot VS euporie

A few years ago, you had to recompile it to add sixel support on debian, so I provided https://github.com/csdvrx/sixel-gnuplot

Now it's included by default IIRC

sixel-tmux works literally anywhere you can use tmux: as long you can display unicodes on your terminal, the sixels will be "captured" by sixel-tmux and converted into something you can see. Sixels are in-band, so ssh isn't a problem.

In a way, using sixel-tmux is like "giving magical goggles" to your terminal, to let it render sixels so you can see something (even if it isn't perfect), in the hope you'll be tempted to use a better terminal that will show you sixels in all their glory, with a pixel perfect quality.

Sixels enable all kind of cool things, like gnuplot right in your terminal (cf https://github.com/csdvrx/sixel-gnuplot ): sometimes I even watch youtube on my terminal lol

sixel-tmux was made as a first step towards turning derasterize into a more general library: my plan was to add it to nnn but I got bored along the way and moved to other stuff. I might still do that I I love nnn as a filemanager.

BTW, even if there have been quite a few interesting work by @hpa and others in the last 2 years, I think derasterize still has textmode supremacy. derasterize is a collab with @jart after I started adding features to her previous solutions which was based on half blocks like this solution; she's also made further work based on this like https://justine.lol/printimage.html and https://justine.lol/printvideo.html

That's also my main usecase: doing plots with gnuplot

A few years ago, it wasn't compiled by default in the debian packages so I released binaries: https://github.com/csdvrx/sixel-gnuplot

I wish framebuffer consoles would support sixels to do without X or wayland, mostly to have inline plots line https://github.com/csdvrx/sixel-gnuplot without having to use say fbi

> On the other hand, text output to the console has generally gotten slower, usually much slower than you would expect for the change in console size

I don't see why we should tolerate slow rendering of text. The techniques recently used to accelerate text rendering in Windows Terminal should be usable in the framebuffer console.

and sixel support can be made to work with this: https://github.com/csdvrx/sixel-gnuplot

Currently it's part of euporie-notebook, but I'm planning on splitting it out and publishing the web-browser as an independent project.

You can get most of the way there with euporie:

https://github.com/joouha/euporie

I don't support audio yet, but it should be possible using DECPS escape sequences

If you use euporie [1], you can draw plots in a Jupyter notebook in the terminal using matotlib and friends, and have them displayed using terminal graphics.

Now with xontrib-jupyter you can use xonsh language in web-based Jupyter Notebook, JupyterLab and in terminal-based Euporie.

https://github.com/joouha/euporie in a a separate terminal works fine for me.

Why synchronize if you can stay in the terminal

I would like a rust lib to build a terminal UI like this: https://i.imgur.com/d5mo8ce.png - that's euporie (https://github.com/joouha/euporie) implemented Python using the prompt_toolkit(?) - it's very pretty and even mouse works...

I'm working on a TUI Jupyter Notebook editor, euporie, which allows you to run and edit Jupyter Notebooks in the terminal.

https://github.com/joouha/euporie

It's useful for editing and running notebooks on remote servers over SSH, or inside containers where setting up port forwarding is not possible or too difficult, or if you just like working in the terminal.

It's open-source, and I have no idea how I would go about monetizing it!

I've spent a lot of time recently working on euporie's HTML renderer, which I'm planning on using to make a new terminal web-browser.

If people are looking for a more JupyterLab like environment for the terminal, you could try euporie [1] (I am the author).

It supports vim and emacs style key-bindings, and can display rich cell output like images and widgets.
