# ctpv
|
|
|
|
Terminal previewer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
ctpv is an utility for previewing various files
|
|
(including images with [Überzug](https://github.com/seebye/ueberzug)).
|
|
|
|
ctpv is a remake of an awesome program named
|
|
[stpv](https://github.com/Naheel-Azawy/stpv) 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](https://github.com/gokcehan/lf)
|
|
file manager but I believe that it can be easily integrated into
|
|
other programs as well if they support previews provided by
|
|
external programs like lf does.
