Type:         gfx/conv
Version:      1.0b
Replaces:     gfx/conv/ifftoasc*
Architecture: m68k-amigaos

IFF to ASCII will take in a 2 colour, 640x256 IFF ILBM picture, and convert it
as best it can into an ASCII text file. Perfect for producing ASCII art.

The program has a nice user interface, allowing some flexibility over how your
artwork is 'rendered'. The archive includes not only the program, but also full
instructions and several examples.

A quick demo. May look a bit squw-wiff as most formats have a different
character set to the Amiga (but the program does have ways to deal with this).


NEW for version 1.0b:
Now, hopefully works on NTSC machines as well as PAL.
