Well-written article!
I wish there was some kind of standard to tell CLI apps what features to expect from the system pager, so they can act accordingly …
Right now, apps can talk to the terminal to check for feature support, but all of that falls apart when the output is piped to a pager. (Do we support inline links? ANSI colors? Sixel support??)
Shameless plug, specifically regarding Sixel support: I needed a pager with better image support than just less -r and made https://github.com/roblillack/lessi

Yes, there is imgap: https://github.com/roblillack/imgap
You can use it to create delta images for git diff but also to interactively compare changes via git difftool.

Wow, this project (and actually the whole thread here) is awesome. Love it! Our (iPad-based) kitchen timetable[1] is nothing compared to the work (and money) Joel sank into this.
If someone wants to go the easy route towards something like this: iPad (Air 1, I think) is connected to the charger 24/7 and runs in Kiosk mode. Application is just a React website hosted on Vercel, client credentials are stored in localStorage …

It’s not PIC and not really suitable for complex diagrams, yet, but you can use Vizzlo’s Chart Vizzard to create a subset of the supported chart types (let’s say a Gantt) and then continue editing it using the chart editor: https://vizzlo.com/ai

Happy that this will finally be a feature of FF. Still pretty useless for me, though, for these reasons:
- There's an empty tab bar shown at the top of the window.
- Currently, there's now way to enable a wider sidebar that shows tab titles, too.

Went through the list, all listed services are SaaS apps. :(
Granted, most of them are self-hosted (not all!), but this list needs to be called norecurringfee.com ….

Geez, look at the build instructions! It all went downhill when they switched from Motif to GTK.
Not a full replacement for WordPerfect, but Pure has "Reveal Codes" (F9): https://github.com/roblillack/pure
