1 Libcaca is a graphics library that outputs text instead of pixels,
2 so that it can work on older video cards or text terminals.
3 It is not unlike the famous AAlib library, with the following improvements:
5 * Unicode support
6 * 2048 available colours (some devices can only handle 16)
7 * dithering of colour images
8 * advanced text canvas operations (blitting, rotations)
10 Libcaca works in a text terminal (and should thus work on all Unix systems
11 including Mac OS X) using the S-Lang or ncurses libraries.
