You will also find some more information about (more traditional?) algorithms when searching for keywords like "image2ascii algorithm" and maybe "markus" - for I have posted a lot of mails to alt.ascii-art about that subject. One example thread can be found here: http://groups.google.com/groups?q=markus+image2ascii+algorithm+group:alt.ascii-art.*+group:alt.ascii-art.*&hl=de&selm=3AE01CDE.85C9373B%40rz.uni-karlsruhe.de&rnum=4 Markus (who unfortunately is very very busy and does not have time to finish the 4.0 version of JavE - of course containing the new edge detection algorithms...) -- \-/ http://www.jave.de O_< Get JavE now! \-/ J|a|v|E /| J|a|v|E /-\ Ascii-Art for eyeryone / \ - for free! /-\
