Ueberzug aims to implement a general easy way to show images in terminal emulators in X11.
(regardless of whether or not a terminal emulator supports it)
Libraries:
- bash
- python3.5+
Advantages to w3mimgdisplay:
- no race conditions as a new window is created to display images
- expose events will be processed, so images will be redrawn on switching workspaces
- tmux (partly) supported
- terminals without the WINDOWID environment variable are supported
- chars are used as position - and size unit, so it's easier to place a image on the desired position
