A utility to render pixely images on your terminal. Now also with animated GIF support*.
*for best results, use tmux (for some reason that reduces flickering)
Although there is a setup.py I have grown quite frustrated with setuptools
and pythons abysmal package handling. Any contributions are welcome.

Since I wrote this tool to generate graphics for ponysay, I included a "speech bubble" feature. To make this tool render speech bubble markers which can later be parsed by ponysay, color the pixels where these should be placed 50% transparent red (#FF00007F) for a backward slash link, 50% blue for a forward slash and a 50% transparent green for the speech bubble. Please note that this tool converts images two pixel rows at once and these "special" color values are only parsed for the upper of the two rows. An example image is included.
