ooh, I was unaware of this. FFmpeg is only used for
decoding/scaling images and video. An NCURSES-like level of
functionality is possible without it, one which will still
benefit from e.g. RGB color and multithreading safety.
I've been considering throwing another image-decoding backend
into the project, as FFmpeg draws in a huge dependency chain on
Debian as well. What's the preferred "kitchen sink" image
decoder these days? libimagemagick? What's recommended for
Fedora/Rawhide, if I ideally want to:
1) throw a file/memory buffer at the lib without having to know
anything about image format,
2) get 24-bit RGB or 32-bit RGBA back, and
3) have it handle scaling?

I'm not sure I understand your meaning. Do you have a page I can
reference? Thanks!
