Nice! In the 2nd screenshot, how is it showing the image? Is that a terminal that can render images, or some clever conversion to ascii art [there's some ascii art related code in the onefetch repo].

It uses `kitty` terminal's built in support for images. [0][1]

Note: iTerm2 also has its own image display protocol and for something more generic there is Sixel or w3mimgdisplay (from w3m).

I think it's iTerm-specific.
