    I don’t believe I’ve ever seen shape utilized in generated ASCII art

    Ah, someone’s never seen 8088 Corruption. The encoder was a brute-force comparison of source pixels with downscaled / blended characters in CGA’s few available colors.

    … wait, AAlib definitely uses shape. Is the author just new to ASCII art?

    Killer effort, regardless.
