v1.7.0 adds the 'dm view' command which displays supported CBM graphics formats directly to compatible terminals that support DEC Sixels. Some examples of supported terminals: Windows Terminal Preview v1.22; mintty; iTerm2; wezterm; Contour; konsole v22.04.

With CBM Selector syntax, it is possible to view such files directly from supported containers; e.g.:

dm view loadstar.d81:CREATURE.SHP

would display a rendered Loadstar SHP image to the terminal without first extracting it from the d81 disk image, and

dm view loadstar.d81:*.SHP

would display a rendering of every SHP image file found on the d81. 

See the main project page linked above for more documentation for this and all other dm functionality.
