lsix is a tool similar to ls, but for images. It displays thumbnails in the terminal using sixel graphics, detecting terminal background color and supporting multiple image formats. Expanding GIFs show all frames in a montage. Features include inline SIXEL graphics, color quality improvement, and adjusting tiles per row based on window width. Installation involves placing the BASH shell script in the path and requires ImageMagick. SIXEL-compatible terminals are listed, while incompatible ones include MacOS Terminal and kitty. Configuration is simple through editing the file directly. Future issues involve terminal compatibility and color register detection. The author welcomes feedback and suggestions for improvement.
