ANSI Art Gallery: Faithful Art Rendering

The gallery now properly renders ANSI art with full color support instead of showing raw escape codes.

What Changed

ANSI (.ans, .nfo) — Full SGR color parsing with 16-color and 256-color support. Bold, underline, blink, and reverse video all work. CP437 block characters (the building blocks of ANSI art) are correctly mapped to Unicode, so lines, shading, and box-drawing characters display faithfully.

ASCII (.txt, .asc, .diz) — Clean monospace rendering on a black background.

PETSCII (.pet) — Commodore 64 style rendering with a blue background and the classic C64 color scheme. PETSCII screen codes are mapped to Unicode block elements.

Amiga (.asc) — Rendered with Amiga Topaz-style font settings for authentic oldschool ASCII art appearance.

The Collection

The gallery is stocked with 40 curated pieces from legendary art groups including ACiD Productions, Blocktronics, Fuel, Mistigris, Lazarus, and many more. Browse by category: ANSI, ASCII, PETSCII, or Amiga.
