Description:

TexPix is a utility for converting images in sprite format to text files.
It also allows sequences of such images to be animated.  The conversion
takes a Mode 0 image, scans it and finds appropriate ASCII symbols to
replace each character-sized block on screen.  The application also
contains a module that provides a new screen mode (mode 90) which gives
a more compact representation when viewing images using !Edit.  Example
files and an animation are included.
