This is probably a very frequently asked question, but what is the
best app for converting graphic files to ascii?

I'm using 'ascii image' at the moment, which is pretty good, but was
wondering if there was anything that took the colour values of
surrounding pixels into acount when converting a pixel to a character.
Kind of like ascii anti-aliasing.

Thanks,

Pagan.

P.S. Could you reply via email as well as posting, most posted
messages don't seem to make it down here to New Zealand.
