# imcat
Show any size image in a terminal window. No X11 required.
![Sample use](images/sampledesktop.png "Sample use.")
## Introduction
Do you ever find yourself logged into a server, over SSH, but there is no X11 connection.
And you want to see the contents of an image?
imcat to the rescue!
imcat is a 24-bit image viewer that uses ANSI terminal colours to display any image supported by STB.
It automatically resizes to the width of your terminal, using proper sampling kernels.
## To do
* Correct for aspect ratio of terminal font.
## License
* Public Domain.
