Hi there,

 I'm working on adding a sixel image to my board.

 My problem:
   It never displays the sixel.

 I used img2sixel in 16 color mode, and limited the width to 300 pixels.
 So I would figure bbs_display_sixel the filename and be done, but it
 appears I am not.

 If you call in to my board, you can see I display some text and pause,
 before the pause is where the display sixel is called, with no output.

 My lua:

 ++ SNIP 'mousemoved.lua' ++
bbs_write_string("Hi Sixel\r\n")
bbs_write_string("/talisman/"..bbs_get_data_path().."/mouse_moved.sixel\r\n
"
)


bbs_display_sixel("/talisman/"..bbs_get_data_path().."/mouse_moved.sixel")
 -- SNIP --

 If you're trying to follow along, the first 2 lines are just writing,
 the last line, with a space between the first 2 is the actual call I'm
 wrestling with.

 I have mouse_moved.sixel the name of the sixel file in the scripts data
folder (just for lack of better location to put it).

 I've even tried giving it the complete 100% full path, with no luck.

 Any help will be very helpful.

Take Care,
 Apollo
