drawille VS Term-Graille

I think it'd be really cool if it used braille characters to get higher resolution like https://github.com/asciimoo/drawille

Not OP, but for the folks asking the rendering is likely some version of https://github.com/asciimoo/drawille/.

If one is just looking for higher resolution semigraphics, then drawille ( https://github.com/asciimoo/drawille ) can put eight pixels into a single character using Unicode's Braille patterns. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille_Patterns ) (Assuming, of course, that one has at least one font that supports that Unicode block.)

This is pretty cool!

It reminds me of a similar project that’s been around called drawille [0] which is pretty nifty.

The algorithm is based off of this one. Yes, I know there's a Lua version but I couldn't figure out how to get it to work with OpenComputers.

You ought to check out the Braille characters if you want to get high-res image display or graphs in terminal. Drawille is a good example of what can be done with them

The worst kit you could use is Term::Graille, which is is rather immature and buggy, and still evolving. For an example of menu and dialog boxes you can see a previous reddit post

https://github.com/saiftynet/Term-Graille indeed

Its for a games platform provisionally called the "PerlayStation Games Console". "Sprites" are created using Braille characters, and are used for games that run on a terminal window (hence console). The idea was borrowed from Drawille (and its Perl version Term::Drawille), reworked completely to create Term::Graille. The keyboard interactions, menu system and dialogs are the current work in progress to create an intuitive games designer, the first part of which is the sprite and game tile editor...all terminal applications.

This is currently something I am making for a console sprite editor, and part of Term::Graille. It would be trivial to strip Graille out of the module and use something more powerful like Term::ANSIColor instead; might do that later, though I suspect there are better versions than mine out there.
