fzf --preview 'imgcat -W $FZF_PREVIEW_COLUMNS -H $FZF_PREVIEW_LINES {}'
Notes:
* There is no good way to determine the height of the rendered image,
so we assume that the image takes the full height of the preview
window. So the image cannot be displayed with the other text.
* fzf-preview.sh script was updated to use `imgcat` if it's available
but `chafa` is not.
* iTerm2 also supports Sixel, so adding support for this protocol is not
quite necessary but it renders animated GIFs much better (e.g. looping).
So that it can determine if it should subtract 1 from $FZF_PREVIEW_LINES
to avoid scrolling issue of Sixel image that touches the bottom of the
screen.
When a Sixel image touches the bottom of the screen, the whole screen
scrolls up one line to make room for the cursor. Add an ANSI escape
code to compensate for the movement. Unfortunately, the movement of the
screen is sometimes noticeable.
fzf --preview='fzf-preview.sh {}' --preview-window border-left
* Fix regression where previous image is not properly cleared
* Change the way fzf calculates the number of required lines to display
an image (ceil -> floor) to fix the issue where an image is always
rendered as a wireframe.
Progress:
* Sixel image can now be displayed with other text, and is scrollable
* If an image can't be displayed entirely due to the scroll offset, fzf
will render a wireframe to indicate that an image should be displayed
* Renamed $FZF_PREVIEW_{WIDTH,HEIGHT} to $FZF_PREVIEW_PIXEL_{WIDTH,HEIGHT}
for clarity
* Added bin/fzf-preview.sh script to demonstrate how to display an image
using Kitty or Sixel protocol
An example:
ls *.jpg | fzf --preview='seq $((FZF_PREVIEW_LINES*9/10)); fzf-preview.sh {}; seq 100'
A known issue:
* If you reduce the size of the preview window, the image may extend
beyond the preview window
when the preview window is re-enabled and the current preview process is
taking more than 500ms and previewDelayed is triggered
fzf --preview 'sleep 1; date; seq 1000' --bind space:toggle-preview
# Scrolling will behave similarly to CTRL-E and CTRL-Y of vim
fzf --bind scroll-up:offset-up,scroll-down:offset-down \
--bind ctrl-y:offset-up,ctrl-e:offset-down \
--scroll-off=5

Close#3228
* Works inside and outside of tmux
* There is a problem where fzf unnecessarily displays the scroll offset
indicator at the topbright of the screen when the image just fits the
preview window. This is because `kitty icat` generates an extra line
after the image area.
# A 5-row images; an extra row at the end confuses fzf

Currently there is not option to bind ctrl-delete and shift-delete. As
suggested by issue #3240, shift-delete could be used to bind "delete
entry from history" as it is a common way to do so in other
applications, e.g. browsers.
This, however, does only implement to use the key combination itself and
does not assign a default action to any of them. This does enable to
call one's all predefined actions. With the exec action this can
expanded like the issue #3240 suggested.
If desirable, the key combinations could later get a default behavior.

* change-preview-window restores the initial preview window options,
and overrides the properties that are specified
* However, 'hidden' property is treated differently. It is set to
'false' if the specified properties of the action is non-empty.
* cf. toggle-preview takes the "current" preview window options and
toggles the 'hidden' property.
Fixed a bug that when both heightUnknown and deferred are true, deferred is not properly reset and the program terminates abnormally.

Can we find a better name? I have considered the followings.
* 'point', because "the pointer" points to the current item.
* 'shift', 'switch', 'move', etc. These are not technically correct
because the current item can change without cursor movement (--tac,
reload, search update)
* 'change' is already taken. 'change-current' feels a bit wordy and
sounds wrong, 'current-changed' is wordy and doesn't go well with the
other event names
* 'target', not straightforward

* Default border style on Windows is changed to `sharp` because some
Windows terminals are not capable of displaying `rounded` border
characters correctly.
* If your terminal emulator renders each box-drawing character with
2 columns, set `RUNEWIDTH_EASTASIAN` environment variable to `1`.
# Start fzf in a small screen so that the preview window is hidden

# Enlarge the screen until the preview window appears. It should not be empty.
Even when {q} is empty. Because, why not?
While this can be seen as a breaking change, there is an easy workaround
to keep the old behavior.
# This will show // even when the query is empty
: | fzf --preview 'echo /{q}/'
# But if you don't want it,
: | fzf --preview '[ -n {q} ] || exit; echo /{q}/'

This reverts commit 750b2a6313.
This can cause a deadlock if the endpoints are accessed in the core event
loop via execute action.
fzf --listen 6266 --bind 'space:execute:curl localhost:6266'
Technically, there's no reason to use the API because the information is
already available via `{}` and `{q}`, but I'd like to completely remove
the risk of misuse.
Favors the line with shorter matched chunk. A chunk is a set of
consecutive non-whitespace characters.
Unlike the default `length`, this new scheme works well with tabular input.
# length prefers item #1, because the whole line is shorter,
# chunk prefers item #2, because the matched chunk ("foo") is shorter
fzf --height=6 --header-lines=2 --tiebreak=chunk --reverse --query=fo << "EOF"
N | Field1 | Field2 | Field3
- | ------ | ------ | ------
1 | hello | foobar | baz
2 | world | foo | bazbaz
EOF
If the input does not contain any spaces, `chunk` is equivalent to
`length`. But we're not going to set it as the default because it is
computationally more expensive.

- Not the exact solution to --tiebreak=length not taking --nth into account,
but this should work. And the added benefit is that it works well even
when --nth is not provided.
- Adding a bonus point to the last character of a word didn't turn out great.
The order of the result suddenly changes when you type in the last
character in the word producing a jarring effect.
Fix#2683
This commit fixes the cases where fzf incorrectly determines the
scrollability of the preview window when `--preview-window-wrap` is set.
Wrapping of the preview content happens during the rendering phase, so
it's currently not possible to know how many lines are actually needed
to display the content beforehand. So `preview-bottom` still may not
move to the very bottom with wrapping enabled.
Kitty's shell intergration generates a long sequence of key presses in
certain cases. As long as the length of the sequence is finite, fzf can
process it.

So you can "rotate" through the different options with a single binding.
fzf --preview 'cat {}' \
--bind 'ctrl-/:change-preview-window(70%|down,40%,border-horizontal|hidden|)'
Close#2376
The new actions are named with 'change-' prefix to differentiate from
the pre-existing, one-off 'preview(...)' action.
