Dots, not a font

Each cell is a 2 by 4 lattice of dots, and an ordered dither decides which dots light in each cell. The dots are drawn as round dots with a gap between them, the braille lattice itself, rather than a font glyph.

Colour

The dots can be Mono, in a single colour; Source, taking each cell's colour from the picture; Duo, in two tones; or ANSI, in the 16 terminal colours.

Every option, from the app

Generated from the registry the app publishes, so this list is whatever the current build actually ships — not a copy of it.

  • Block MosaicThe image drawn in Unicode block characters: square cells, curated ramps, ink and paper colour.
  • Half-BlockTwo colours in every cell: the BBS-era ANSI art trick that doubles the vertical resolution of text.
  • DitherOrdered dithering: Bayer and blue-noise threshold masks quantised to real machine palettes — Game Boy, PICO-8, CGA, EGA, NES, C64, ZX Spectrum and more.
