Awesome idea, but doesn't work under PuTTY/KiTTY:

  $ lsix
  Error: Your terminal does not report having sixel graphics support.
  
  Please use a sixel capable terminal, such as xterm -ti vt340, or
  ask your terminal manufacturer to add sixel support.
  
  You may test your terminal by viewing a single image, like so:
  
  convert  foo.jpg  -geometry 800x480  sixel:-
  
  If your terminal actually does support sixel, please file a bug
  report at http://github.com/hackerb9/lsix/issues
  
  Please mention device attribute codes: ^[[?6c
Too bad! That would be pretty spiffy.

Is there an open-source windows terminal which supports Sixel? Mostly seems only Cygwin or WSL stuff out there, nothing pure?



I started using wezterm recently and really like it. It's cross platform and supports sixel graphics.

I can no longer edit my post. I just saw that apparently it doesn't work with wezterm on Windows. Sorry about that.

I don't really like that they're including so much non-core functionality. Why should a terminal emulator provide its own multiplexer, ssh client and serial connection libraries, instead of using those already available on the operating system?


Mintty is an excellent windows terminal with sixel support fyi.
