|
|
notcurses-view - Render images and video to a terminal
|
|
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
|
|
**notcurses-view** [**-h|--help**] [**-d delaymult**] [**-l loglevel**] [**-s scalemode**] [**-k**] files
|
|
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
**notcurses-view** uses a multimedian-enabled notcurses to render images
|
|
|
and videos to a terminal. Media will be scaled to the terminal's size.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
|
|
**-d delaymult**: Apply a rational multiplier to the framerate.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**-l loglevel**: Log everything (high log level) or nothing (log level 0) to stderr.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**-s scalemode**: Scaling mode, one of **none**, **scale**, or **stretch**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**-m margins**: Define rendering margins (see below).
|
|
|
|
|
|
**-k**: Inhibit use of the alternate screen. Necessary if you want the output left on your terminal after the program exits.
|
|
|
|
|
|
files: Select which files to render, and what order to render them in.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Default margins are all 0 and default scaling is **stretch**. The full
|
|
|
rendering area will thus be used. Using **-m**, margins can be supplied.
|
|
|
Provide a single number to set all four margins to the same value, or four
|
|
|
comma-delimited values for the top, right, bottom, and left margins
|
|
|
respectively. Negative margins are illegal.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Scaling mode **stretch** resizes the object to match the target rendering
|
|
|
area exactly. **scale** resizes the object so that the longer edge of the
|
|
|
rendering area is matched exactly, and the other edge is changed to
|
|
|
maintain aspect ratio. **none** uses the original image size.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Blitters can be selected by pressing '0' through '8'. **NCBLIT_DEFAULT**
|
|
|
corresponds to '0'. The various blitters are described in
|
|
|
**notcurses_visual**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
A video can be paused with space. Press space (or any other valid control)
|
|
|
to unpause.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# NOTES
|
|
|
|
|
|
Optimal display requires a terminal advertising the **rgb** terminfo(5)
|
|
|
capability, or that the environment variable **COLORTERM** is defined to
|
|
|
**24bit** (and that the terminal honors this variable), along with a
|
|
|
fixed-width font with good coverage of the Unicode Block Drawing Characters.
