Unless someone forks this project, this is the final version. The author is serving a life sentence, so I cannot imagine he will update this ever again.

If I link to any articles about it, I dox him unfortunately and I'd prefer not to. I was friends with cmang from our pre-teen days, and we were both heavily involved in the ansi/ascii scene. I'm sure there's still some here who remember him from efnet, or other places.

thats admirable, and i am certainly not telling you to do otherwise.

but i will point out that they have written out their full name and state on their github, patreon, and buymeacoffee.

I recently made an ASCII art web app:

... I occasionally make dos games as a hobby, and I wanted to be able to draw some ASCII on my iPad. Kinda a niche thing but open to feedback if anyone tries it.
