ASCII Art Convertor

Description

The idea of this project is to load images, transform them into ASCII ART images, optionally apply filters, and save them. This project was created as a semestral work for the Object Oriented Programming at Czech Technical University in Prague.

Usage

-----COMMANDS-----
help
exit
run <image> [filter1] [filter2] ... <output>

-----IMAGE (use exactly one of the following)-----
--image "relative or absolute path to image"
--image-random

-----FILTERS-----
--invert
--flip x
--flip y
--brightness <amount>

-----OUTPUT (use at least one of the following)-----
--output-console
--output-file "relative or absolute path to output file"

Note: Every pixel gets converted into an ASCII character → Using smaller images is generally recommended.
