New Software For Creating ASCII Art

New Software For Creating ASCII Art

From PJ <Pea...@yahoo.com> · alt.ascii-art · 14 Feb 2003 19:55 · View full thread · report
I wrote a little Windows program that converts pictures to text art.
It works with 12pt Arial as well as with the usual ASCII fonts. It's
easy to use and it's free. You can download it from:

http://hometown.aol.com/PeaJammie/pictexter.htm


The software is a work-in-progress, so Let me know if you have
suggestions, complaints, etc.

Here's an example of what it can do...
