For a quick hack, this works rather well. I did a quick test with webp, qoi and png and it worked pretty well.

Some observations:
* Under DOSBoX-X, it requires -b to work
* Large images might be better shown scalled down to the size of the viewable area. Scrolling the image up and down is rather slow under emulator.
* An info line with some basic information about images might be useful. Or, alternatively, the info about the image might be shown under text mode after exit.

Well, everything else would be overkill for what you wanted it to be and do. :-)
