Anything to ASCII is a fun and easy-to-use program to transform anything you want into ASCII art: be it images, videos, or even audio tracks, this application can turn them into an ASCII art representation of them.
- Can convert images and videos (and audio tracks, because it's funny).
- Support for a wide range of media types.
- Support for both single-threaded and multi-threaded computations.
- Resizing of the input media based on user settings.
- now with better memory locality!
- faster than ever!
In this update, the application was completely remade, even if some parts are still similar. The biggest new things are mainly:
- New in-memory structures: now, instead of storing the images in 2-dimensional vectors (
Vec<Vec<_>>), they are now stored in a customFlatMatrix, which, as the name suggests, stores the data flatly, bettering memory usage and locality, thus improving speed. - Now the application is available as a library too! (local only for now, will be available on )
Disclaimer: depending on your platform and/or application/website that's displaying the GIFs, they may or may not look horrible. If you aren't satisfied with their quality, you're welcome to try the application yourself! 😉
