SIXEL to JPG
File Converter

SIXEL is a bitmap graphics format that uses six pixels per character cell to represent images, primarily developed for DEC (Digital Equipment Corporation) terminals in the 1980s. It allows for the display of images directly in terminal emulators that support the SIXEL standard, making it possible to visualize graphics in command-line environments without relying on external graphics programs.

JPG (or JPEG) is one of the most widely used image file formats, favored for its efficient lossy compression algorithm that significantly reduces file size while maintaining a high image quality. It is commonly used for photographs and web graphics; however, the lossy nature of its compression means that some image quality is sacrificed, and this loss can be exacerbated with repeated editing and saving. JPG files support 24-bit color, allowing for a broad spectrum of colors, but they do not support transparent backgrounds.
