# qoistream

The idea is to capture screen (or a window) and encode it as a stream
of [QOI](https://qoiformat.org) images.  That stream is supposed to be
sent over ethernet to another machine and displayed there.  Kind of
like a cheap screen sharing.  Each frame is lossless but smaller than
raw images (~620Kb vs ~8Mb for full hd, for example).

`qoisend` is used on 9front side, `qoirecv` on Unix side. Default port is 12345.
