Is there a program out there that turns spaces into " "'s?

Thx,

> Is there a program out there that turns spaces into " "'s?

You can do this with almost all texteditors :

Seach for a space and replace it with  

Joel <3ln...@spamex.com> 1 Jul 2001 13:33 · permalink · report
The best way to do this and also reduce the size of the HTML page.
Enclose your ASCII drawings with the "<pre>" tag.
This displays all the spaces in the browser without the need of &nbsp;

Hope this helps :).

Using Jave (http://www.jave.de) you can easily convert any Ascii text to
html: Paste whatevery you want into the editor and click on the button
"export" (top right). Then chose html as output format. All special
characters are encoded to html entities. That's it.

How about output in color Markus ?
Both as HTML and as ANSI escape codes.

And how about the ability to insert 3D ascii primitives ? (and I don't mean
Krogg :)

or Ascii Fractals ?

BTW do you have some good guidelines (or sourcecode) on how to render a simple
mandelbrot or julia ?
I was thinking of creating a small program using this .. and NO i'm not going to
tell you more about it, because you'll just program it in 5 minutes and I'll be
left with out a sense of acomplishment :P

I have sometimes thought about color, but it is not one of my main
goals. Maybe I will add support  for color to the image2ascii tool, but
I am pretty sure that I do not want to add it to entire Jave. It would
make it all much much much more complicated. And I don't know for how
long I will keep on spending that much time on programming Jave. I think
it will come to an end somewhen...

Are you talking about something like that:

(the idea came from a simple 3d renderer called "Chaos 3d renderer" from
the ioccc contest:
http://www.highprogrammer.com/alan/ioccc/)
This one will be part of Jave 1.1
If you are talking about something else, please explain.

You may already have seen the JMOV-movie at:
  http://www.jave.de/player/demo/demo2.html
(BTW: The original online Ascii Julia generator in JavaScript is online
at:
  http://www.geissworks.com/ryan/NEAT/mandfram.htm )

So fractals could be included in 1.1 - although it is just playing
around.

I could send you the source code from my Mandelbrot/Julia implementation
- but it is adopted to the characteristic features of Jave (it produces
pixels and Jave converts it to ascii) and I think it is a better idea to
do a search on google to find source code for this.

:-)
1) It took me more than two days to write the Mandelbrot Tool - and it
is not worked out good enough to be included in Jave 1.1 yet
2) Even if it might sometimes look like that, I do not want to show
others "Hey, look at me. I can do it better!". I just want to play
around with those fancy ideas about what to do with ascii characters. By
doing this I get a better idea of how to use it and can develop other
things perhaps nobody thought about before. E.g. by rewriting the 3d
renderer I found out a new style for the generic tools in Jave.
By rewriting a fractal renderer I improved the existent algorithms.
3) I do not want to snatch away ideas from others. At the moment I have
so many ideas of my own - and there is a list of about 500 lines of text
with lots of great ideas for improving Jave - and some of those even
came from you :-)
