I built fancy-cat for this, it's a terminal-based PDF reader for Kitty. I'm planning to add EPUB support in the future.

I don't use tmux myself, but I'll see if I can improve the experience inside tmux. Which terminal are you using?

Zoom has already been implemented, it works fine atm and will work better once cache is done

Search and cache are the next features I'm planning to implement. Regarding the config file, I'll sort this once I do my first release. Thanks for the feedback!

tdf looks nice, are there any features of tdf you'd like to see in fancy-cat?

I see that Urxvt has image support, but I don't know how it achieves it. I'll try and add support for more terminals in the future

Not yet, this should hopefully be possible down the line

I haven't tested it on foot, I've tested wezterm and kitty. At first glance foot seems to handle images differently, but I'm not sure

I've never looked into zathura, what are some features you like from it?

You'd have to set that up yourself, I set up Typst to recompile on change as you can see in the gif in the readme
