Description

This c++ project allows you to easily convert any plain-text into ASCII art and vice-versa.

Usage

Since this is a C++ project you need to compile main.cpp to generate an executable. I've done so below using g++:

g++ main.cpp -o main.exe

Examples

Convert Plain-Text Into ASCII Art

To convert plain-text into ASCII art and print output in terminal:

./main.exe display font.txt "My Sentence" "#" "."

To convert plain-text into ASCII art and save output in a .txt file:

./main.exe display font.txt "My Sentence" "#" "." > output.txt

Command Arguments:

• display: Specifies that we are turning plain-text into ASCII art.
• font.txt: Required file that determines ASCII shapes.
• "My Sentence": Any string you want to generate ASCII art from.
• "#": The character you choose as the foreground character.
• ".": The character you choose as the background character.

### Convert ASCII Art into Plain-Text: To convert ASCII art into plain-text and print output in terminal: ``` ./main.exe read font.txt input.txt ``` Command Arguments:

• read: Specifies that we are turning ASCII art into plain-text.
• font.txt: Required file that determines ASCII shapes.
