ASCII Painter/Picture Lab 1.0

Its getting ever more closer to release, so I'll start this topic.

Yes ofcourse it's in FreeBASIC, but, it ends with BASIC and I know Pete welcomes more FreeBASIC stuff around here, so here it is: This link takes you to the info regarding a project I've been working on. For a quick over view, the name pretty much says it, it's a editor made to work with ASCII chars to make Pictures. Go look at the screen shots and see for yourself...

Why don't you save the images in a binary format (using corresponding characters for 0-255 instead of just writing the number). You'd cut down the file sizes a fair bit.

Does the BAS output run in Qbasic / compile in QuickBASIC or does it only work in FreeBASIC?

Cause it's a ASCII program? :lol: .... No, really, I'll think about it next time.... Just didn't cross my mind I guess. :wink:

@Madcrow: FreeBasic only since it's 32bit colour and uses:

Code: Select all

SCREENRES 640, 260, 32
