Is there a way to stop getting out of memory
messages with this DOS program
DOSGifscii21.exe
ftp://ftp.wwa.com/pub/Scarecrow/Gifscii/DOSGifscii21.exe 58Kb
Here is what i am doing, to get a TIF to ASCII text
I know it is a long way about,
but i am new to this and it is mostly working.
Scanning a picture in TIF
convert to PCX
convert to I
convert to GIF
convert to GIF to ASCII text
Anyway it works, mostly.
if the TIF or PCX is about 015K
then the x.I file is over 600K
and the DOSGifscii21.exe
is out of memory
I have 12,000kb of RAM
can i tell this converter to use it ?
is there a better GIF to ASCII converter ?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Sla'inte! (Cheers! in Irish)
