"<ESC>[31M"? ANSI Terminal security in 2023 and finding 10 CVEs
If you really want crazy, run `xterm -ti 340`, then run run an X server from the xserver-sixel repository <https://github.com/saitoha/xserver-SIXEL> in it. Now y ou can run as many terminal emulators, complete with real truetype fonts and all the colors you could want, inside the one terminal. Use a tiling window manager and you’ll be able to avoid using tmux entirely.

Blink virtual machine now supports running GUI programs
There's a X with sixel support: https://github.com/saitoha/xserver-sixel
I played with this before, and I could use X11 within a mlterm terminal.
I should try to recompile it with cosmopolitan to have a single X server binary both for Windows and Linux

If one GUI's not enough for your SPARC workstation, try four
What you do is run `xterm -ti vt340`. If your xterm was compiled with SIXEL support, this will enable it. (You can test it by running something simple like `gnuplot -e "set terminal sixelgd; set key bmargin center horizontal; plot [-5pi:5pi] [-5:5] real(tan(x)/atan(x)), 1/x"`.)
Now run Xsixel (from <https://github.com/saitoha/xserver-sixel>) to run an X server that outputs to sixel graphics. In that X server you can run any program you would like, and its graphical output will be converted to sixels, printed to stdout, given to xterm, and then xterm will draw them.
Job done!
See <https://saitoha.github.io/libsixel/> for more information and tools, along with lots of screenshots.

GUI in terminal
There's a version of X for these terminals: https://github.com/saitoha/xserver-sixel

Hi! I made simple TUI desktop for Linux named TBox
You could probably do something like run X on Sixel for terminals that support Sixel.

Show HN: Sixel-tmux displays graphics even if your terminal has no Sixel support
> unfortunately it's way too slow to get anywhere near 'realtime' output (30fps or better).
That's not due to sixels. Check out the sixel nyan cat: https://github.com/hackerb9/sixvid
Look at the FPS indicator in the bottom. It was pointed to me in https://github.com/microsoft/Terminal/issues/448#issuecommen...
The issue may be in your code.
I think I have similar performance issues, as the glyph selection process could be more optimized.
Derasterized is mostly Jart work (who is best known here for her work on Cosmopolitan), we were mostly interested in quality.
Reducing the set of glyph to something that could benefit from optimizations could help.
> I really wish there was a decent pixel-framebuffer standard for terminals (with at least the same performance as ncurses)
Sixel performance is quite decent: personally, I can play videos in my terminal.
Try MPV on mintty: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/2183
I have also played with a X server rendering over sixel, no performance issue: https://github.com/saitoha/xserver-SIXEL
When sixel support is added to Windows Terminal, I may update it, because it would be fun to have one tab to run stuff!

icons in neotree
What terminal emulator are you using? I have noticed that the latest release of iterm2 has problems rendering glyphs (see this discussion and links therein). I too am having problems displaying any nerd font icon due to the aforementioned.

Tell HN: macOS is degrading fast, and GNU/Linux is now better for most uses
Found the bug report related: https://gitlab.com/gnachman/iterm2/-/issues/9372
2 things to note:
- This bug has 12 +1s, which suggests it was never very widespread (I could be wrong); and
- Big Sur was 2 major releases ago.
Like I mentioned, I never saw this issue, and had never heard of it despite the fact that probably about half the people I work with use Macs, and I believe nearly all of them use iTerm2.
- Iterm2 scrolling choppy

Getting Started with Tmux
I had trouble getting the tmux setup working in iterm.
The main page suggests -CC, but the best practices wiki[0] says to use `-CC new -A -s main`, but this causes iterm to warn that a session is already started and doesn't actually create or reattach like I expected. I also had trouble getting the tmux select-layout to work: when I tried it all my panes just exited with an error. I would like to have iterm behave similarly to Kitty's tall layout[1] which I think is the same thing as tmux's main layout, but haven't figured out how to make it work. Anybody have tips on making these wek?

Terminal Graphics for the 21st Century
I just found this, the synchronized updates spec from iTerm2: https://gitlab.com/gnachman/iterm2/-/wikis/synchronized-upda...
Googling for it, it seems some other terminals implement this as well.

What does it mean when the cursor looks like this in iterm (mac)? I can't copy text when it looks this way and I'm not sure how a panel enters this state.
According to https://gitlab.com/gnachman/iterm2/-/issues/8827, this occurs when "reporting is enabled". This means that mouse clicks are reported as special events to the application running in the terminal rather than being handled by the terminal emulator itself. According to https://iterm2.com/documentation-preferences-profiles-terminal.html, you can temporarily disable it by holding down Option.

Opening a file in an existing session or window from command line
I take it that the main at the end of the command in this screenshot is the name of the session?
