Usage:
img2txt.py <imgfile> [--maxLen=<n>] [--fontSize=<n>] [--color] [--ansi] [--bgcolor=<#RRGGBB>] [--targetAspect=<n>] [--antialias] [--dither]
img2txt.py (-h | --help)
Options:
-h --help show this screen.
--ansi output an ANSI rendering of the image
--color output a colored HTML rendering of the image.
--antialias causes any resizing of the image to use antialiasing
--dither dither the colors to web palette. Useful when converting
images to ANSI (which has a limited color palette)
--fontSize=<n> sets font size (in pixels) when outputting HTML,
default: 7
--maxLen=<n> resize image so that larger of width or height matches
maxLen, default: 100px
--bgcolor=<#RRGGBB> if specified, is blended with transparent pixels to
produce the output. In ansi case, if no bgcolor set, a
fully transparent pixel is not drawn at all, partially
transparent pixels drawn as if opaque
--targetAspect=<n> resize image to this ratio of width to height. Default is
1.0 (no resize). For a typical terminal where height of a
character is 2x its width, you might want to try 0.5 here
