Mosh: SIXEL graphics support

Created on 30 Nov 2019  路  1Comment  路  Source: mobile-shell/mosh

SIXEL is an image format that allows high-quality image display in terminal.
For detailed information, check libsixel repo and Wikipedia:

As shown in the comparison below, it seems that sixel graphics are supported by SSH but not mosh.
The terminal emulator tested with is wsl-terminal v0.8.13, which is based on mintty. On Linux, mlterm also has sixel support out-of-the-box.

I can confirm this on xterm compiled with sixel support as well. Would be amazing to have this!
