Had a quick play.

I'm liking the UX in ephoto :), but when I went to exit the window
froze and stdout just showed a stream of "EINA ERROR: 'Invalid
argument' on spin_lock 0x779b2d36b984" - this is on NetBSD-10 amd64.

terminology seems nice too, and it can use -misc-fixed which is an
absolute requirement for me :)

rage doesn't seem to play mp4 files for me

thanks for the work so far!
