Convert ASCII scribbles to SVG
- ItendToDisagree 9y agoThis is awesome! I'm trying to dig out early 90s warez/gamez nfo files to run through this thing!
- prayerslayer 9y agoIf you wonder where ASCII scribbles come from, I use http://asciiflow.com/ http://asciiflow.com/ all the time for READMEs.
- nathancahill 9y agoSuch a great app. Use it all the time for code comments and readmes.
- astashov 9y agoSorry for shameless plug, but there's also my http://textik.com http://textik.com, which is for more structured editing, and also written in Elm.
- matthberg 9y agohttps://ivanceras.github.io/svgbob/build/ https://ivanceras.github.io/svgbob/build/ is a working demo of the project, showcasing a good deal of the lines and features available.
- ivanceras 9y agoAuthor here and I'm surprise to see this here. I haven't maintained this elm version. I've created a rust version[0] and it's practical usage incorporated into markdown[1]. A MacOS app can be downloaded [2]. Pay what you want so I can improve the app in the future.

- BugsJustFindMe 9y ago[Edit: I just realized that the demo page is editable after it finishes the first render. So kudos for that! Does the newer rust version handle the wavy body and arm lines better than the OP elm project link?] This is cool, but I'm a bit sad that the spongebob artwork doesn't have a converted result. Diagrams are well and good (and those diagrams are great), but demoing it on a more picture-y picture would show another aspect of potential versatility.

- ivanceras 9y agoOh, the playpen was a hack to just display the source code of the graph, but not for rust execution.
- jancsika 9y agoHow do you avoid collisions between the text and the lines? I've used SVG for editable flow diagrams, and even with a sans mono font the OS's text rendering engine can give different widths for the same pixel size font. My solution was a kludge-- measure the rendered font in a hidden HTML5 canvas.
- emilfihlman 9y agoNevermind the svg, what is used to generate those ASCII charts!?
- ivanceras 9y agoThere is a graphical app for linux called asciio. Allows you to draw ascii graphs
- leephillips 9y agoDon't know when I would use this, but that doesn't stop me from being very impressed.
