|Hi!
|
|I'm programming some utilities to help when creating ascii pictures. I
|would like to know what programs are there already and what do you all
|often need.
'---------------------------

* FIGlet - Creates large ascii banners

     / /  (_) /_____ / /_/ /  (_)__
    / /__/ /  '_/ -_) __/ _ \/ (_-<
   /____/_/_/\_\\__/\__/_//_/_/___/ 
    _     _ _  or    _   _     _
   | |   (_) | _____| |_| |__ (_)___

   | |___| |   <  __/ |_| | | | \__ \
   |_____|_|_|\_\___|\__|_| |_|_|___/  and many other fonts...

* GIFscii (and variants) - makes solid style ascii pictures from GIF (or
some other format) pictures.

* ASC-TOOL - does rotation and flipping of ASCII Art

* ASC2PIC - the reverse of GIFscii... takes solid style ascii and 'draws' is
as a picture on the screen.

* RESIZE - Performs 'pixel' resizes on ASCII Art... adding or removing
characters to resize the pic.

* ASCHALF - Resamples asciiart to 50% graphically.

* LGIFScii - Line GIFscii... like GIFscii but with lineart. This program is
not finished yet.

* TRIM - removes blank spaces from the end of lines in text files.

I think I just about covered the main ones.... i`m sure if I missed anything
important someone will have a go at me <g>

Bye,
Martin
