Hello,

Does anyone know how to use w3mimgdisplay to display images on the 
terminal (or if its even possible)? I'm hoping to be able to put it in 
my mailcap so that when I view an attached image, it'll display it on 
the terminal.

I've gotten as far as understanding that it has an input command 
language, so I can query the size of the image, like so:

     echo '5;./test.jpg' | w3mimgdisplay

And I *believe* the command to display an image looks something like 
this:

     echo '0;1;2;3;4;5;6;7;8;9;./test.jpg' | w3mimgdisplay

But as of yet, I haven't actually gotten it to display anything. Does 
anyone have any clues? Are there some magic incantations that must be 
performed first? Image-specific numbers that must be generated? What's 
the trick?

~Kyle

P.S. Yes, I know that w3mimgdisplay has to be a persistent process, so 
the echo line up there won't *quite* work... but I'm still stumped as 
to what the correct behavior is.
