  $ git clone https://github.com/BEPb/image_to_ascii
  $ cd image_to_ascii
  

Applying the repository

• Install dependencies from a file, for this, enter the following code in the command line：

$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

• general form of program launch：

$ python3 img_to_txt_rus.py [file/url] [size]

[file/url]: Local file path or online image URL.
[size]: The width of the output txt image in characters - an integer, The larger the size, the clearer the picture.
