Cursive Image

An image view for the Cursive TUI library.

Works on terminals that support the Kitty graphics protocol, which includes Kitty itself as well as Ghostty.

You can provide image data directly as RGB (24 bits per pixel), RGBA (32 bits per pixel), or from the following source formats:

• PNG (natively supported by the graphics protocol)
• GIF via gif (enable gif feature)
• JPEG via zune-jpeg (enable jpeg feature)
• SVG via resvg (enable svg feature)
• PDF via hayro (enable pdf feature)

The view supports shrink, fit, and scale sizing modes (shrink is the default), image alignment, and scrolling.

Check out the examples.

In the future we may add support for additional graphics protocols, namely iTerm and Sixel.
