Uh, cool exactly what I need for my ascii file tilemap experiments. But I had a bug, where often the color of the charactes was drawn black until I clicked elsewhere. And I wish I could customize the size of the canvas.

Really neat and easy tool, I wish it doesn't cheat with colors though. Maybe only allow a limited palette akin to text mode CGA and brightness/saturation is represented via letters (i.e @#,.). Would be even more awesome if it gives you a small script which shows your creation in a real terminal window :D

imgfkrActual ASCII/ANSI art typical don’t have the luxury of colors, typically they’re limited to 16 colors.
In order to get more variety of the palette, they use specific symbols for different “brightness”, like a red @ for a bright red dot and ; for something less bright, etc.
But I think you’ll see it for yourself once you have that preview in terminal thingy!
I don't have an artistic fiber in my being, but this was actually really fun to use!
