NFO Viewer is a simple viewer for NFO files, which are "ASCII" art in
the CP437 codepage. The advantages of using NFO Viewer instead of a text
editor are preset font and encoding settings, automatic window size and
clickable hyperlinks.

## Installing

### Linux

#### Packages

NFO Viewer is packaged for most of the popular [distros][], so easiest
is to install via your distro's package management. If not packaged for
your distro or you need a newer version than packaged, read below on how
to install from Flatpak or the source code.
