Inline visualization of images

[montyvesselinov]

Is it possible to produce incline visualization of images? If not is it possible to develop these capabilities?

Currently i use mac os x + iterm2 + TerminalExtensions.jl to produce this:

Can i replicate this in your terminal?

There are existing issues for image support. See #5746 and #448.

However, note that the TerminalExtensions module is designed specifically for use with iTerm2, so even if we supported the iTerm2 image format it probably wouldn't work as is. If you want cross-platform image support, you're probably better off using one of the Julia sixel modules, which are more likely to work on a variety of terminals.

TerminalExtensions is a ripoff of an alternative python package. I know it is designed for iterm2.

Note that there are several other packages:

There is also Sixel.jl

If you're happy with the sixel packages, then that should be covered by issue #448.
