This PR provides built-in support for sixel images, which are detected when reading the contents of a file for previewing purposes. Multiple sixel images can be displayed alongside with text if output by the
previewerscript.Note
This means the
sixeloption is no longer required, and it is removed in this PR.Example
previewerscript:Apparently
--polite onis no longer needed because this new implementation does not require the first two bytes of theprevieweroutput to be the sixel header (ESC + P), but I think it is still better to include it in the wiki as a recommendation.
