#33This is a great idea. I always wanted KDE konsole to e. g. show images inlined as is. This is possible via magick six:-, but I wanted this to be natively. I want the terminal to be able to work with any data and display it in any way. No need to simulate the 1980s era anymore (except for backwards/legacy support). So great idea here really.

#34Terminal is slowly becoming a full featured web browser.
And rightfully so! \o/

#36I actually see some use cases for this. It's one of those should be nonsense projects that somehow isn't.
What use cases do you see?

#39Seems... really good?! Questions: - rendering capabilities of this seem like it should also be able to handle 2d well, or am I mistaken? every solution I see for getting high quality 2d images or rasterization in terminal is all pretty bad. Could this do better than other solutions or is there a fundamental limit being hit somewhere? - What happens with ssh given that this is gpu accelerated?
There are quite a few GPU powered terminal emulators around already.
Is that what you're looking for?
