Simon Law 6db30a10f7 cmd/tailscale: shrink QR codes using half blocks (#17084) ... When running `tailscale up --qr`, the QR code is rendered using two full blocks ██ to form a square pixel. This is a problem for people with smaller terminals, because the output is 37 lines high. All modern terminals support half block characters, like ▀ and ▄, which only takes 19 lines and can easily fit in a regular terminal window. For example, https://login.tailscale.com/a/0123456789 is now rendered: ``` user@host:~$ tailscale up --qr █████████████████████████████████████ █████████████████████████████████████ ████ ▄▄▄▄▄ █ ▀▀ █▄▀▀ ▄ █ ▄▄▄▄▄ ████ ████ █ █ █▀ ▄▄▄█▀█▄▀ ▄█ █ █ ████ ████ █▄▄▄█ ██▄ ▄▀▀▄▄ ▀▀ ▀█ █▄▄▄█ ████ ████▄▄▄▄▄▄▄█ ▀▄▀ █▄▀▄▀▄█ █▄▄▄▄▄▄▄████ ████▄█▄ ▀▄▄▄█▀▄█▀ ▀▄ ▄ ▀▀ ▀▀▄█▄ ████ ████▄▀▄▀▄█▄ █ ▄▄▄▄█▀██▀██▄▄█▀█▄▄▀████ ████▄█▀ ▀ ▄█▄▄▀▄▀█ ▄ ▄█▀█▄▀██▄ ▀▀████ █████▀ ▀ ▄▀▀▀▀▄▀▄▀▀ ▄▄ ▄ ▀ █▄ ▄████ ██████ ▄▄█▄▄▄▄▄▀ █ ▄▀▀▄█▀ █ ▄ ▀ █████ ████▄█▄▄ ▄▀ ▀██▀ ▄█▀▀████▄▀█ ██████ █████▄▄▄█▄▄▄▀▀ █▄▄▄▄▄ ▀█ ▄▄▄ ▀▀████ ████ ▄▄▄▄▄ █ ██▄ ▀ █▀█ ▄ █▄█ █▄█████ ████ █ █ █▀ █ ▀█▄▄ █▀ ▄ ▀▄▀▄████ ████ █▄▄▄█ █▄█▀█▄▀██▀██▄ ▀█▄▀▀▄▀▄████ ████▄▄▄▄▄▄▄█▄▄███▄▄▄███▄▄▄██▄██▄█████ █████████████████████████████████████ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ ``` To render a QR code with full blocks, like we did in the past, use the new `--qr-format` flag: ``` user@host:~$ tailscale up --qr --qr-format=large ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ ████████ ██ ████ ██ ████ ██ ████████ ████████ ██████████ ██ ████ ██ ██ ██████████ ████████ ████████ ██ ██ ████ ██████ ██ ██ ██ ██ ████████ ████████ ██ ██ ██ ████████ ████ ████ ██ ██ ████████ ████████ ██ ██ ████ ████ ████ ████ ██ ██ ████████ ████████ ██████████ ██████ ██ ████ ██ ██████████ ████████ ████████ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██ ████████ ████████████████████████ ██ ████ ██ ████ ████████████████████████ ████████ ██ ██ ████ ████ ██ ████ ████ ██ ████████ ██████████████ ████████ ████ ██ ██ ██████ ████████ ████████ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██████████████ ██████ ██████████ ██████████ ██ ██████ ██ ██████████ ████ ██████████ ██████ ████████ ████████ ████ ██ ██ ██ ████ ██████ ██████ ████████████ ████████████ ████████ ██ ██ ██ ████ ████ ██████ ████████ ████████████ ██ ████████ ██ ████ ██ ██ ████████ ██████████ ██ ██ ██ ████ ██ ████ ██████████ ████████████ ██ ██ ██ ████ ████ ██ ██ ██████████ ████████████ ████████████████ ██ ██ ████ ██ ██ ██████████ ████████ ██ ██ ████████ ██████████████ ████ ████████████ ████████████████ ██ ████ ████ ██████████ ██ ████████████ ██████████ ██ ████ ██ ████ ████████████ ████████████████████████ ████████████ ██ ██████ ████████ ████████ ██ ████ ██ ██████ ██ ██ ██ ██████████ ████████ ██████████ ██ ██████ ██ ██ ██ ██████ ██████████████ ████████ ██ ██ ████ ██ ████ ████ ██ ██ ████████ ████████ ██ ██ ██ ██ ██████ ██ ██ ██ ██████████ ████████ ██ ██ ██ ██████ ████████████ ████ ████ ██ ████████ ████████ ██████████ ██████ ████ ████ ██████ ████ ██ ██████████ ████████ ██ ██████ ██████ ████ ████ ██████████ ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ ``` Fixes #17083 Signed-off-by: Simon Law <sfllaw@tailscale.com>		4 months ago
