Nice. Are you posting to Lemmy from the terminal? Also how did you take this screenshot?

No, posting to Lemmy from my phone. I used fbgrab to take the shit and used a paste-bin script to post it to 0x0.st

Thumbs up! Living with just framebuffer has always been a big dream of mine!

I'm curious, are you able to display nerd glyphs and ligatures somehow? Or is it all just usual TTY font?
pfr@lemmy.sdf.org · 3 pts · 1y
Afaik is just tty fonts, using terminus here.

Really Nice.
Could you elaborate on what programs you use tot display PDF files and which browser you use?
pfr@lemmy.sdf.org · 2 pts · 1y
w3m browser and I don't really view pdfs in this setup. Most files are text files so I just use vim or bat. If I really needed to view pdf files I'd probably just use groff.

Thanks for the reply.

Did some further investigation. I've build fbpdf (https://github.com/aligrudi/fbpdf, with all the -lmupdf-* removed from the Makefile to make it build) and this works very well. With pipe-viewer I can watch YT video's (which uses mpv under the hood).
Thanks for the inspiration.

I didn't know about those. I'll give fbpdf a try. As for YouTube, I tried to get videos working with mpv but it's not happy for some reason. Works fine on my glibc void Linux laptop, just not on this one.
