ascii-art

Install pyfiglet with pip and run python -m pyfiglet "TEXT" -f slant to render a banner locally. Without installing anything, call the asciified API endpoint with your text and a case-sensitive font name.

Run ascii-image-converter with the image path or URL, setting explicit dimensions with -d and optionally -b for finer braille output. For JPEG files only, jp2a --width=80 is a smaller alternative that is usually already packaged.

pyfiglet runs locally, works offline, and is fastest once installed via pip. The asciified endpoint needs no installation but requires network access, case-sensitive font names, and returns text without a trailing newline.

ANSI colour codes from toilet render as escape-sequence litter outside terminals, and markdown renderers collapse spacing without a fenced code block. Re-render without colour and wrap the art in a code fence.

Output over 80 columns wraps in most terminals, destroying the alignment. Choose a narrower font such as small or mini for longer text, shorten the text, and check the width before sending.

Yes, curl the qrenco.de endpoint with the target URL appended to get a character-based QR code. Send it inside a fenced code block and note it must be viewed in a monospace font to scan correctly.
