imgcurses (smart character-based image viewer)
|
|
|
|
imgcurses displays images in a console or terminal using color
|
|
ASCII art.
|
|
|
|
* Do you browse the internet using lynx?
|
|
* Do you wish the world was only 8 colors?
|
|
* Do you pity your peers with their pathetic desktop applications?
|
|
|
|
imgcurses might just be for you...
|
|
|
|
The limited color palette introduces some pretty bad limitations,
|
|
but unlike alternatives imgcurses is fully interactive and employs
|
|
smart techniques to get the most out of viewing - it doesn't just map
|
|
pixel values to ASCII characters. Images are best viewed scaled up,
|
|
from a distance, and with a blurred focus. The combination of modes
|
|
highlights different image features and makes an overall understanding
|
|
of the image much more plausible.
