libsixel-rs

This is a port of libsixel from C to Rust.

It is currently a work-in-progress, and does not work.

Initial Rust files were created using the c2rust project. This project is partially an experiment in using c2rust as a porting tool.

Following along

If, for whatever reason, you are following the development of this library, (partially) completed modules are included in src/lib.rs.

All other code is from the first c2rust pass over the original C project. As porting is completed, modules will be added to src/lib.rs.

In a number of cases, looking at the original C code is easier than figuring out the c2rust code. Partly, because c2rust makes a best-attempt at translating C-isms like goto in a somewhat confusing way.

main will also be clobbered until the entire library is ported. After that, I will add some additional tests, a fuzzing suite, fix bugs discovered by tests, and make a first beta release.

After the first beta release, main will be considered stable, and normal developement will happen through opening and merging PRs.
