How to send the image to kitty

Note that I didn’t test yet the named shared memory solution offered by kitty.

Variants

TempFile

write a temp file, then give its path to kitty in the payload of the escape sequence. It’s quite fast on SSD but a big downside is that it doesn’t work if you’re distant

Chunks

send the whole rgb or rgba data, encoded in base64, in the payloads of several escape sequence (each one containing at most 4096 bytes). Works if broot runs on remote.
