ctpv

Terminal previewer

ctpv is an utility for previewing various files (including images with Überzug).

ctpv is a remake of awesome program https://github.com/NikitaIvanovV/ctpv stpv but it's written in C. stpv worked perfectly for me, except it was kinda sluggish because it was written in POSIX shell. ctpv is an attempt to make a faster version of stpv and add some new features.

Originally it was made for lf but I assume it should not be hard to integrate ctpv into other programs (if they support external programs for providing previews like lf, of course).

Installation

Manual

git clone https://github.com/NikitaIvanovV/ctpv
cd ctpv
sudo make install

Uninstall with sudo make uninstall

Integration

lf file manager

Add these lines to your lf config (usually located at ~/.config/lf/lfrc):

set previewer ctpv
set cleaner ctpvclear
&ctpv -s $id
cmd on-quit $ctpv -e $id
