Add a unique museum-like experience to your terminal!
TerminalMuseum is a CLI tool that displays a new piece of classical art on your terminal every time you run it.
Use the package manager pip to install TerminalMuseum.
pip install terminalmuseumThe command to display images varies between terminal emulators, and many can not display images at all. I personally recommend using kitty with TerminalMuseum, as images are displayed in native resolution and loaded very quickly.
If you use kitty, you don't need to install any additional tools. Just add these lines to your .bashrc:
terminalmuseum --command "kitty +kitten icat" --print_titleMany terminal emulators don't natively support displaying images. In these cases you can use tools like imgcat. After installation add these lines to your .bashrc:
terminalmuseum --command "imgcat" --print_titleThe Art used in this project is in the public domain and was filtered and downloaded via the openaccess project of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
