Greetings.
In the early 1990s I used to run a BBS that hosted many SEQ files
containing PETSCII graphics, including C64 colour and cursor control
codes. When the files were transmitted to users at 1200 baud, they
produced clever and beautiful animations. I'd like to convert these
animations to a format that can be easily viewed from a modern web browser.
So does anyone know of a free, preferably command-line tool that will
convert my PETSCII animations to an animated GIF or APNG? I know I
could write a simple CBM BASIC program to view the files, run it in
VICE, capture the emulator output to a video file, extract the
individual frames with ImageMagick, and then reassemble them into an
animated GIF using gifsicle. But that's a rather kludgy process that
requires a lot of manual intervention for each and every file I want to
convert; I was hoping there might be some dedicated tool that I could
just run directly on a given SEQ file and automagically get a GIF or
APNG as output.
Regards,
Tristan
