This review looks at a third terminal-based image viewer that supports the Kitty Graphics Protocol. It’s named Chafa, shorthand for Character Art Facsimile. This is an image-to-text converter. It’s free and open source software written in the C programming language.
Chafa lets you view images as well as animated GIFs. Its core functionality is provided with a C library.
