NAME

Image::TextMode::Reader::AVATAR - Reads AVATAR files

DESCRIPTION

Provides reading capabilities for the AVATAR format.

COMPATIBILITY

The reader implements all of the AVT/0 specification as well as the majority of the AVT/0+ specification. The main difference being that AVT/0+ character expansion is not re-interpreted, thus expansions containing further AVT/0 codes will simply be written as characters to the canvas.

ACCESSORS

• tabstop - every Nth character will be a tab stop location (default: 8)
• x - current x (default: 0)
• y - current y (default: 0)
• attr - current attribute info (default: 7, gray on black)
• image - the image we're parsing into
• insert - insert mode (default: off)
• linewrap - max width before we wrap to the next line (default: 80)
