πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so Terminology ships with a bunch of companion tools that control its advanced behavior, and they're lowkey iconic. ✨

what do they do? they let you do in-line and popup display of media files, they give you an enhanced file listing, and they hand you control over the visual appearance. that's the whole vibe. πŸŽ€

the escape codes that make all this behavior happen are documented in the EXTENDED ESCAPES FOR TERMINOLOGY section of terminology(1). go read that if you wanna go deeper, bestie, it's giving lore. πŸ“–
