I read once about a guy working on a image recognition system. The guy was
showing how his system could re-draw the image using ascii only.
-> does anybody know if such a program exists? if  yes, where could that be
found?
cheers

There are billions of programs like that and I bet he didn't invent
it. Try jave.de

Maybe he didn't mean only the Image2Ascii Converter of JavE or other
programs, but a program which chooses the appropriate ASCII character for
the image part. So that the program does not only look what the average gray
value is in the testing area but also looks for line to draw and so on. I'm
working on something like that for a while but it was put on ice, because I
had too much else to do.
