The program has a lot of text import functions. You could for
example import a text file as spiral. Nice for emails ;)


               AscII 2 Pic: Co
             nverts each characte
           r into a pixel and shows
          the graphic as (gray tones)
         a bitmap in a new window. Her
       e the size of the picture can be
       changed and some color effects ca
      n be used. With 'save' the picture
      is saved as (IBM) bitmap into a fil
     e. With 'Close' the window is closed
      and you return to the ASCII Editor.
     With large ASCII pictures the calcula
    tion of the pixel representation can t
    ake some time.   Pic 2 AscII: Converts
     a bitmap in an ASCII picture. This fu
    nction offers no options and should be
     used with caution . The bitmap become
    s on a scale 1:1 (Pixel:Char.) convert
    ed and therefore only smaller pictures
     should       be used. Al       ternat

The program can convert pictures to ASCII art (greyscaled),
ASCII art to pictures... The above example shows a special
functions: You could show a text in form of picture.
