We’ve become used to the benefits of online maps, and there are plenty of options to choose from. Open source projects tend to stick with Openstreetmap (OSM), a high-quality community-supported map service for both online and offline use. However, this time we’ll be using OSM in an unusual way with the help of Mapscii, a fully fledged map inside your Linux terminal! As long as the CLI mode imposes constraints, such as low resolution for emulating graphics, don’t expect Mapscii to look much better than a map rendered on the tiny screen of a mobile phone from 2001. However, since screen real estate on a desktop is large, everything looks rather usable and the map itself can be scrolled and zoomed.
