i recently found links has graphics mode for tty which is can render images in tty and more colorful than classic mode... it uses svgalib and framebuffer... i like framebuffer programs such as fbterm, (i use it because i can select font size so i can use more space in my screen when tmux'ing... and it matters when you have 1024x600 netbook display)
maybe you didnt know that i wanted to share... when challenging in unix you can use this... BUT. you cant see videos... you still need to use youtube-dl then mplayer for that... and JS not working too... Links comes with shitty cursor for framebuffer... big and ugly... I have ported basic black cursor to it... if you want you can replace arrow.inc in base source directory in links-2.8 and recompile, so your cursor will be nicer... Code: /* Automatically generated by the program "arrow" (arrow.c) */ enum {arrow_width=32, arrow_height=32, arrow_area=1024}; static unsigned int arrow[64]={ 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x08000000U, 0x00000000U,0x0c000000U, 0x04000000U,0x0a000000U, 0x06000000U,0x09000000U, 0x07000000U,0x08800000U, 0x07800000U,0x08400000U, 0x07c00000U,0x08200000U, 0x07e00000U,0x08100000U, 0x07f00000U,0x08080000U, 0x07f80000U,0x08040000U, 0x07c00000U,0x083e0000U, 0x06c00000U,0x09000000U, 0x04600000U,0x0a100000U, 0x00600000U,0x0c800000U, 0x00300000U,0x08080000U, 0x00300000U,0x00480000U, 0x00000000U,0x00300000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, 0x00000000U,0x00000000U, };if you want your own cursor, procedure is simple: -> enter into links-2.8 source directory -> enter to 'graphics' directory -> do 'make' you will get 'arrow' binary... create a 32x32 png image with no-alpha channel and no layers paste your cursor into that image make background (the part you want to make transparent) 255 green... you can pull original image from arrow.png -> mv arrow.png to arrow.png.old (in case of corruption) -> save your image as arrow.png into that 'graphics' dir -> run ./arrow and 'cp arrow.inc ..' -> and cd .. then make && make install done... Code: Slax 7.0.8 (32-bits + PAE) |
