NAME

       png2html - transforms a PNG image to a web page

SYNOPSIS

       png2html [ imagefile.png textfile.txt output.html compatibility ]
       Where compatibility is either 0, 1 or 2
       0 = Small Source, but uncompatibile with some browsers
       1 = Medium Size, works with almost anything.
       2 = Large Source, strict HTML.

DESCRIPTION

       png2html  takes  a  PNG image and transforms it pixel by pixel to a web
       page, encoding each pixel as an appropriately coloured letter.
       It is decided which letter to encode each pixel as by using a text file
       supplied by the user.

NOTES

       This program assumes that 1 pixel should equal 1 character.
       But characters are taller than they are wide, so you may want to resize
       the image first,  else  the  output  image  will  be  taller  than  the
       original. Resizing is also advisable as letters are larger than pixels.
       Setting the output file to be "-", will direct the  output  to  stdout;
       setting the text file to "-" will cause the program to read from stdin.
