[HECnet] sixel graphics viewer

[Erik Olofsen]

Hi all,

For those interested in Sixels, I ported the code (quick and dirty)
from ftp://ftp.cs.utk.edu/pub/shuford/terminal/all_about_sixels.txt
to Javascript and combined it with Flot and a JQuery terminal:

http://rullf2.xs4all.nl/sg/sg.html

You then get a Javascript terminal, with a display function; some examples:

js> example$
js> display(example$)
js> display(Array(5).join('CA at ACGOG'))
js> display('HECNET')

and

js> display(digital$)

Considering the run time to display the latter image, photos should
perhaps not be too detailed...

Erik

PS: For now, palette[0] is used to set the background color.

The second part of this is actually making the files visible in the specific library. For this users need write access to the directory (and possibly extend access). In order to find the files, you need read access. For removing files from a directory, you need write access to the directory.
So obviously, you either allow both entering and removing, or neither.


That's what I ended up doing, I trust there aren't too many griefers on HECnet that'll go and delete random files.

But seriously, if you find something cool or want to post an image of yourself, send it to CHIMPY:[.DROPBOX]. I've got a few alpha EXEs up there and a couple of pics of myself in SIXEL and JPEG formats..
