Beta 4.0 Released – Batch Conversion

Download it here.

Added ‘File -> Batch Conversion…’

Sorry it took so long, but I decided to wait until I’d implemented everything I wanted before releasing. It’s easily the biggest change since I started this on Sourceforge, with about 25% extra code.

I think I’ve properly tested everything, but please report any bugs here or through the sourceforge link at the top. Also let me know if you think of any other features that could be added.


Update

Beta 4.0 should be released in a few days. I finally finished separating the conversion code from the main form, and batch conversion is up and working in the cvs.


Beta 3.4 Released

Download it here.

Changes:
Inverted text brightness and contrast when using white text on black background mode
Current entered width or height now kept when loading a new image
Fixed problem with output binary images having an extra space
Added right-click ‘Flip Horizontally’ and ‘Flip Vertically’ to the text image


Update

I’m back and I’ll upload a new version to fix a couple of small bugs later today or tomorrow.

:siren: Please stop requesting batch conversions. :siren:
I’m gradually doing some internal things that need to be changed before I can do multiple images, but I will get around to it eventually. How I’ll fit it in the program is anyone’s guess.


Beta 3.0 Released

Download it here.

0.3.0

Change log:

    Fixed problem with saving as image being wrong on certain fonts
    Added ability to automatically generate ramps for the current font
    Moved fullscreen button on to a real checkbox button

You won’t see a lot of difference for the default font (Lucidia Console 9pt) because I’d created the default ramp specifically for it, but some of the other fonts show a real improvement with the new ramp creator turned on.

Source code will be uploaded when the cvs server starts working again.


New version soon

Automatic generation of ASCII ramps for the current font is in the CVS and working quite well. I need to try and optimize it a little more, but I don’t know if I can without using unsafe code (which I’m avoiding).

New version will either be 0.2.10 or 0.3.0, I’m not sure yet.
