Convert XBin images to PNG or to terminal
Project description
xbin_render
Render XBin (.XB) images to PNG or to terminal.
XBin files are similar to ANSI-art images, as they consist of characters on a background, with 16 colors.
Install
pipx install xbin_render
Usage
Show on terminal
xbin_render file.xbin
Convert to PNG
xbin_render file.xbin --output-image file.png
Format
The spec is at https://www.acid.org/images/0896/XBIN.TXT but it's incomplete as it relies on knowledge on VGA, etc.
Limitations
The format supports custom fonts, which cannot be rendered easily on a terminal (converting to ressembling characters could be done though). Rendering to PNG without a custom font is not implemented yet.
What about .ANS/.ASC files?
In a color-capable terminal: iconv -f cp437 MYFILE.ANS
