 For instance, if your terminal is Alacritty, which doesn't support displaying images itself, but you are running on an X11/Wayland environment,
 it will automatically use the "Window system protocol" to display images -- this requires you to have [Überzug++](https://github.com/jstkdng/ueberzugpp) installed.
 
+Here is a guide for tmux users: [Image preview within tmux](https://github.com/sxyazi/yazi/wiki/Image-preview-within-tmux)

 See [Feature requests](https://github.com/sxyazi/yazi/issues/51) for more details.
