Here are the optionnal deps which you can choose to install or not:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- file: for determining file types
|
||
|
|
- The python module chardet, in case of encoding detection problems
|
||
|
|
- "sudo" to use the "run as root"-feature
|
||
|
|
- w3m for previewing images in "true color".
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And, for enhanced file previews (with "scope.sh"):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- img2txt (from caca-utils) for previewing images in ASCII-art
|
||
|
|
- highlight for syntax highlighting of code
|
||
|
|
- atool for previews of archives
|
||
|
|
- lynx, w3m or elinks for previews of html pages
|
||
|
|
- pdftotext for pdf previews
|
||
|
|
- transmission-show for viewing bit-torrent information
|
||
|
|
- mediainfo or exiftool for viewing information about media files
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note: previewing images in "true color" is disabled by default. To enable it,
|
||
|
|
first make sure you have w3m installed, then check that your terminal supports it.
|
||
|
|
It was successfully tested with urxvt and xterm, while it did not work with
|
||
|
|
gnome-terminal and st. Currently it does not work with tmux but with screen.
|
||
|
|
Finally, add this line to your ~/.config/ranger/rc.conf and restart ranger:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
set preview_images true
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note: to use custom file previews, you need ranger 1.3.1 or later, and a script
|
||
|
|
that creates previews. Use the default script by typing:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ranger --copy-config=scope
