w3m browser and I don’t really view pdfs in this setup. Most files are text files so I just use vim or bat. If I really needed to view pdf files I’d probably just use groff.
Did some further investigation.
I’ve build fbpdf (https://github.com/aligrudi/fbpdf, with all the -lmupdf-* removed from the Makefile to make it build) and this works very well.
With pipe-viewer I can watch YT video’s (which uses mpv under the hood).
I didn’t know about those. I’ll give fbpdf a try. As for YouTube, I tried to get videos working with mpv but it’s not happy for some reason. Works fine on my glibc void Linux laptop, just not on this one.

Thanks for the reply.

Thanks for the inspiration.
