I've always thought it would be cool if I could have the option to run more rich apps in my terminal - ncurses and lynx come to mind as examples.
I wish more websites were readable with Lynx. A lot of sites use a ton of crazy JavaScript, CSS, and god knows what else. I always appreciate simplicity when I find it.
That's the idea with this - the next step is to extract out the part that takes in a .gif file and outputs it to the terminal from the rest of the CLI so I can make a toy media client for the terminal.
