Describe the bug
According to the docs:
You can also ask the terminal emulator to display the image in a specified rectangle (num of columns / num of lines), using the control codes c,r. c is the number of columns and r the number of rows. The image will be scaled (enlarged/shrunk) as needed to fit the specified area. Note that if you specify a start cell offset via the X,Y keys, it is not added to the number of rows/columns. If only one of either r or c is specified, the other one is computed based on the source image aspect ratio, so that the image is displayed without distortion.
However, only providing one of r or c does not cause the image to be scaled by aspect ratio as the final sentence in the doc indicates.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Cat attached
mars.txt - this is the original image emitted by icat
- Cat attached
mars-just-r.txt - this is the same image with r=4 added
- Cat attached
mars-just-c.txt - this is the same iamge with c=8 added
- See distorted image
Also attached is the original mars.png. The image is public domain.
It's possible that the problem only occurs with a=T; I haven't tested.
The problem can be reproduced without catting these files by capturing icat --transfer-mode=stream mars.png and editing the resultant text to add r=4 or c=8.
