feature - termcap/terminfo?

[rosell23]

Capability checking is well... weird... perhaps terminfo or termcap can aid

[a-h]

@rosell23 - what do you mean "weird". Your comment isn't much for a maintainer or other contributor to go at.

• What behaviour are you seeing?
• How does this behaviour affect you / your workflow?
• How could the behaviour be better?
• How do you reproduce the issue so any fix can be tested?

[rosell23]

On terminals with limited capabilities presenterm just assumes standard terminal capabilities are present.

For example, on Acme's terminal:

image

(Of course this is a bit exagerated, since nobody really either uses Acme, and for the few that do, they probably do not run presenterm there/anyways). Still, on many terminals (like st, which is what I use), elements like images do not render smoothly, and titles don't have any bigger font size.

To reproduce, just use any not-that-advanced terminal, and affects me because it is kinda annoying to have to render my presentations on Kitty instead of st, what I normally use.

If your terminal doesn't support any image protocol, presenterm can't display images in them and will fall back to ascii blocks if that's the case. Similarly, font sizes only work in kitty (and.... foot I think?) so they won't work elsewhere. What are you suggesting here?
