jp2a: Colorize the ASCII output.
$ jp2a --colors ${path-to-image-jpeg}
try on your machine
The command "jp2a --colors ${path-to-image-jpeg}" is used to convert a JPEG image file to ASCII art using the jp2a tool. Here's a breakdown of its components:
- "jp2a" refers to the jp2a tool itself, which is a command-line program used for converting JPEG, PNG, and GIF images to ASCII art.
- "--colors" is an option of jp2a that specifies whether or not to use colors in the ASCII output. In this case, the command is using the default set of colors.
- "${path-to-image-jpeg}" is a placeholder for the actual file path of the JPEG image that you want to convert. You need to replace it with the appropriate path on your system, for example, "/path/to/image.jpg".
By executing this command with the correct image file path, jp2a will convert the image to ASCII art and display or save the result based on its default behavior or additional arguments provided.
