It previews text, archives, PDFs, images, videos, and other file types by selecting from installed helper programs. ### Projektgeschichte The README describes ctpv as a C remake of stpv. The author liked stpv's behavior but found its POSIX-shell implementation sluggish, so ctpv was written in C as a faster version with additional features. Official GitHub releases show v1.0 in July 2022 and v1.1 in March 2023. The project documentation now includes both README integration examples and a generated CTPV(1) manual page. ### Adoptionsgeschichte The README documents package-manager paths for AUR, MacPorts, Homebrew, Nix, and Gentoo overlay users, along with source builds. Its NixOS/Home Manager example shows ctpv being packaged as part of declarative terminal-file-manager configuration. ### Wie es verwendet wird ctpv is usually configured as lf's previewer and cleaner, with ctpv, ctpvclear, and ctpvquit coordinating preview output and lifecycle. Image previews can use Ueberzug, Chafa, or Kitty terminal support, while other previews delegate to common tools such as bat, jq, poppler, ffmpegthumbnailer, and atool. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren ctpv is package-manager-friendly because most of its functionality is integration glue over existing Unix tools. A package can ship the core C binary and manpage, while optional preview capabilities naturally expand as the user's system has more helper programs installed. ### Zeitleiste - 2022: v1.0 release published. - 2023: v1.1 release published. - 2023: Documentation noted Wayland/sixel guidance for lf image previews. ### Related projects - ctpv is related to lf, stpv, Ueberzug, Chafa, Kitty, and the many small Unix preview helpers it can dispatch. ### Quellen - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. - **Geiger-Risiko:** blue / mittel - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
