Problem / Steps to reproduce

I think this is the same bug as #3682, but I can add more context and it is not really related to Wezterm / bash. Looks like it is just the way how fzf processes sixels on Windows. And there is a working go code that can do it =)

Repro in pwsh 7.5.1, WindowsTerminal 1.22.11141:

# no sixels
".\wallpapersden.com_curse-by-wlof_1920x1080.jpg" | fzf --preview "chafa {}"

# with sixels
".\wallpapersden.com_curse-by-wlof_1920x1080.jpg" | fzf --preview "chafa {} -f sixel --passthrough auto"

# Chafa sixels work
chafa .\wallpapersden.com_curse-by-wlof_1920x1080.jpg -f sixel --passthrough auto

What makes it interesting is that another TUI tool written in Go actually can render sixels on Windows. https://github.com/gokcehan/lf

Related to issue #3995.
As a workaround, you can specify the --height option with fzf and adjust the --view-size parameter for chafa. For instance, use --preview='chafa --view-size=18 -f sixel input.jpg'.

Thanks @georgejean for linking the issue.

So we can either fix #3799 in LightRenderer and drop the tcell renderer, or extend the tcell renderer to support image rendering. Since I'm not a Windows user and lack expertise in the platform, I probably won't be working on either, but pull requests are welcome.

Thanks! @georgejean, turns out using fzf --height (that forces using LightRenderer) is enough, no need to specify --view-size in chafa:
