A little #linux #bash script for viewing image urls in a #commandline #terminal client. Allows you to quickly check out image urls in your #nostr feed when you are using #algia. #publicdomain, do with it what you will.

Warning: contains glorious #monochrome #vector graphics. May cause you to suffer flashbacks and/or install a retrogames emulator.

#!/bin/bash

# Remote SSH server requires imagemagick, wget and https://github.com/autotrace/autotrace

# Local terminal client needs to be an xterm or similiar
