- Short: A Text Stereogram generator

- mk3d is a stereogram generator that works with text. Given
- an input file, it'll output a bunch of text characters that
- can show a 3-d image to anyone willing to view the thing
- wall-eyed. This program is an update (basically, a bugfix),
- with perhaps one minor enhancement (level 4 character
- selection is now considerably better).
-
- This program is based on similar code I found for MS-DOS on
- Usenet a couple of years ago. I had to completely rewrite
- it, since that code was written in C, and I don't have a C
- compilor installed on my system (too much memory.. I only
- have a 40 meg harddrive <sigh>).
-
- Anyway, if you're looking for super-defined images, dream
- on. This works with text, and so its definition is as
- blocky as you'd expect if you had to work strictly with
- characters. But, the cool this about this program is that
- you can create your images to be viewed from within
- messages, if you want.
