Simple script that converts given file to a bitmap
Project description
Simple script that converts given file to a bitmap.
The project emerged as a result of wondering “How to compress long text into a form that does not look scary for a human being?”. While the generated images are obviously useless, it’s still fun to play around with them.
Requirements
- Python 3.2+
Installation
pip install txttobitmap
Usage
txttobitmap --mode {palette,grayscale} input output

- palette - use 16 color palette (see: Windows 16-color palette on Wikipedia) and represent each byte as two pixels
- grayscale - represent each byte as grayscale pixel
- input - input file to convert
- output - output file to save the bitmap as
