ansiiart

Package ansiiart is here to convert images of all popular types into the far superious format of bash ansii art. Just think of the possibilities!? have your favourite kitten picture print out when you start a shell or even use this package to make some sort of awesome shell based magazine or something. Endless possibilities.

Image goes in - Ansii art comes out ( linux shell art! )

Usage: as an app

# resolution is the amount of "pixels" rendered
go run main.go <image_file> <resolution>

# e.g.

go run main.go my-picture.png 50 > my-picture.ansii
cat my-picture.ansii

Usage: as a package

package main;

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/skinnyjeans/ansiiart"
);

func main () {
    ansii, err := ansiiart.TransformFile( "kitten.png" );
    fmt.Println( ansii );
}
