[MUD-Dev2] Anyone know of a way to convert a jpeg to an ansi-colored text image?

[Jeffrey Kesselman]

An OCR.

really, thats what your looking for.  How to closest match the bit maps to
characters.

Id think though you would have to do massive edge-detection type
simplification

And no I dont think this software exists "out of the can" yet.  The closes
were some scanning programs back in the tty days that looked at density in
one-character big blocks and mapped them to ASCII charters of about the same
density.

The result were ascii "pictures" that looked fuzzy but viewable if you stood
10 feet back and/or squinted.
