Comment on Viewing JPEG,GIF and PNG in ASCII with cacaview on GNU / Linux – Review on caca-utils text mode graphics utilities by hip0.

Another tool I’ve found capable of converting images to text is jp2a
http://csl.sublevel3.org/jp2a/.

It has version for major Unix like OSes Mac OS X, Debian, Gentoo, FreeBSD. Here is how to install jp2a on this OSes.

Mac OS X

port install jp2a

FreeBSD

You can use the Freshports:
pkg_add -r jp2a

Debian

You can use the Debian package:
apt-get install jp2a
Gentoo

You can use the Gentoo package:
emerge jp2a

Interesting functionality of jp2a is converting images to ascii right from the web. Here is a paste from the project site:

Reading images off the net

jp2a now handles downloading by using libcurl. Just do this:
jp2a http://foo.bar/image.jpg

One advantage of img2txt use instead is it supports JPEG and GIF out of the box, where if jp2a is used. a Convertion with imagemagick convert is first necessery, like so:

# convert somefile.png jpg:- | jp2a –width=76 –
#convert bender.bmp -modulate 170 -rotate 45 jpg:- | jp2a –

Big Church Scandal in the Bulgarian Orthodox Church the developments on how the Church basic law Establishment document is illegally broken and hope and action for truth to be restored

What is rather fun is during the anti-protest organized by Metropolitan Nikolay (with people only from the Plovdiv eparchy just like in the good old times of communism was financed by the unwilling people to go to the event). It was lied that the reason for Nikolay people to protest is because this is a protest in front of the Synod against the accepting of gay marriages (what a lie !!!). Besides that there is a many people from village called Krepost (if not mistaken the village) who were (protestants!) and came to protest in favour of the new anti people legislation (even though not orthodox christians), because they were mislead the protests are against the gays!

Metropolitan Nikolay has publicly asked priests in his eparchy to sign a document they're going to be present on the protests that should support the New Synodal "order". Those who were unwilling to cooperate of course can always be sent by their Metropolitan to a very distant village or even taken away their profession as priests so there was a lot of pressure put on those people.

Christ is Risen Eastern Orthodox Resurrection Paschal Greeting in Different Languages
Hi Stan,

I guess you cannot read the writtings on the icon as it is in cyrillic.
This is not Saint Mary and Saint Peter but Adam and Eve written in cyrillic on top of the icon.
Actually in orthodoxy it is a requirement for the depicted personalities, especially saints to have
written on the names of the saint and have the Halo. If you look closely at the picture you will notice
the two Adam and Eve are missing a Halo. The only person with a Halo in the icon is Saint John the Baptist.

Best Regards
Georgi
