Well, you could try converting the postscript output to .png using $ gs -dNOPAUSE -q -sDEVICE=png256 -sOutputFile=/tmp/whatever.png /tmp/whatever.ps then, provided you use a terminal emulator capable of sixel display, install imgcat using pip3 install imgcat (obviously, python3 + a bunch of libraries required, they are available in pkgsrc, but I haven't seen imgcat itself; however, it works for me on my -current system, using WezTerm from a W11 laptop...) > > Regards > rambius > > -- > Tangra Mega Rock: http://www.radiotangra.com Chavdar Ivanov -- ----
