img2term v0.6 - create awesome text output from image input

This is the day of the first release of img2term 0.6. It contains a lib for image to ascii/color escape sequences conversion upon which a command line program is based. Requirements so far are  vigra and boost::program options. The current version lacks unit tests and might need some improvement on color matching, which uses predefined terminal colors from konsole. An adaptive approach would make the output much nicer for any other terminal as the colors might vary.

I am open to new ideas, but please take notice that this is a one-man project done in free time, effort strongly depending on motivation and other occupation. Even if I really like your idea, I cannot guarantee it will be included within a day or months.

Future work

• adaptive terminal color matching (no predefined terminal colors)
• more functinality
• better documentation, if neccessary
• unit tests
• VERY MAYBE video support

For a first start you should run img2term --help.
To give you an impression what it looks like (using konsole):

Kudos who knows why the current version is 0.6. Also kudos to those who have seen this awesome movie.

You can obtain version 0.6 on my github. For a more up-to-date version checkout the master branch.
