For those of you who don't know what AA-lib is, it's an ASCII Art library. It allows you to have a bitmap image translated (in real time) to ASCII characters. The result is stunning - see ftp.cdrom.com/pub/demos/incoming/demos/bb-final.zip for an unbelievable demo. Visit AA-Lib's homepage at http://horac.ta.jcu.cz/aa/ for more info. For those of you who have no idea why such a library would be useful... well, I'm with you. But it looks nice.
