PREVIEWERS

hunter comes with definitions to enable previewing certain file typse. To use this you need to install some programs first. You can also define your own. See below. Defaults are:

bat / highlight for syntax highlighting
7z for archives
w3m / links / elinks / lynx for html
pdftotext / mutool for pdf

Debian/Ubuntu

**apt install gcc libmagic-dev gstreamer1.0-devel gst-plugins-base gst-plugins-good**

Fix typo: typse ==> types

The installation dependencies are not for Debian/Ubuntu.

This works for me (Ubuntu 18.04):

apt-get gcc libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-plugins-good

libmagic.so is provided by libmagic1 package, but I have the feeling it is not required anymore by hunter as tree_magic is now used instead of mime_detective.

From commit 072b39b, the following is also needed for hunter-media
apt-get install libsixel-bin

Thanks for pointing out the typo and the list of dependencies. I will update the README soon.

And yes, I haven't yet added any info about SIXEL/kitty yet, mostly because it's not completely done and I'm still working on parts of it.

The gstreamer-player-sys crate requires gstreamer-player-1.0 which is provided by libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-dev.

I think this are all the needed dependencies:

apt-get gcc libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-plugins-good libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-dev libsixel-bin

Thanks, just added this to the README.

Note that sixel is optional, if you don't want it you can disable it.
