Hello,

I have a problem since formatting my PC, lsix no longer works whereas before, it worked fine (with the Guake terminal)

I have this message displayed:

Error: Your terminal does not report having sixel graphics support.

Please use a sixel capable terminal, such as xterm -ti vt340, or
ask your terminal manufacturer to add sixel support.

You may test your terminal by viewing a single image, like so:

convert  foo.jpg  -geometry 800x480  sixel:-

If your terminal actually does support sixel, please file a bug
report at http://github.com/hackerb9/lsix/issues

Please mention device attribute codes: ^[[?65;1;9c

I did the test with xtem, the images are displayed. For convert, in guake, no return. In xterm my image is displayed.

thank you for helping me

If ImageMagick's convert doesn't show a picture in guake, then the version of guake you have installed does not support sixel graphics and no change to lsix can make it work. Just to double check, when you say "no return", you mean that there is no image shown when you do something like this:

convert logo: sixel:

Right?

If it shows no picture now, but worked before, then perhaps you had a different version of guake installed?

Are you compiling guake from source? It could be a compile time option. Or, possibly you've changed your windowing system from X to Wayland and maybe guake acts differently in that case. There are a lot of possibilities, but I think this is something the guake team should be able to help you with. They'll know right away how to get sixel graphics working.
