It had many features not found in other programs, but it only did colors. The program is now defunct, due to it haveing too many bugs to get past pre-alpha testing. A newer version was started, but work was stoped and moved to my "Sometime" programs dir. If I get enough requests, I will pull it out of mothballs and continue work. Since it's *only* function was coloring ANSI/HTML pictures, all the features were designed just for that purpose. There are plenty of drawing programs out there, but compered to mine, they were a huge amount of extra work to get the same coloring. Also along the same lines, I was working on a completeley plug-in based GIF/ASC/ANS/HTM converter, which would convert between all of them. It was *not* a grayscale converter, but it would rather do an edge detect, and then use a brute-force method of picking the best characters/colors to use. It was also discontinued, not to be restarted, but if anybody else wants the job, ask. :-) Sorry to ramble, just rambleing. :-) -- --ran...@slip.net --Randy Gardner
