Als kleine Fingerübung habe ich ff. Perl-Script geschrieben, welches zur "Komprimierung" von AsciiArt verwendet werden kann.

Sei die Vorlage:

            /| |\
        ,  ( `-´ )
       /(  _\   /____      []
      |  >(__|9|_____)     ||
       )(    | |  ___  ___ ||
      -==-   | | / _ \/ _ \||
             |8|| (_) |(_) ||
            /   \\___/\___(%%)
           ( ,-. )        |''|
            \| |/         ||||
                          `--'


So erzeugt das Script folgenden Perl-Code:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use v5.10;
say ;
say " "x12,"/| |\\";
say " "x8,",  ( `-´ )";
say " "x7,"/(  _\\   /","_"x4," "x6,"[]";
say " "x6,"|  >(__|9|","_"x5,")"," "x5,"||";
say " "x7,")("," "x4,"| |  ___  ___ ||";
say " "x6,"-==-   | | / _ \\/ _ \\||";
say " "x13,"|8|| (_) |(_) ||";
say " "x12,"/   \\\\___/\\___(%%)";
say " "x11,"( ,-. )"," "x8,"|''|";
say " "x12,"\\| |/"," "x9,"|"x4;
say " "x26,"`--'";
say ;
say ;
say ;1;


Alternativ kann der Fuzzy-Mode eingeschaltet werden, der ff. Code erzeugt:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use v5.10;
used in fuzzy mode
say "\n"," "x12,"/| |\\\n"," "x8,","," "x2,"( `-´ )\n"," "x7,"/("," "x2,"_\\"," "x3,"/","_"x4," "x6,"[]\n"," "x6,"|"," "x2,">(","_"x2,"|9|","_"x5,")"," "x5,"|"x2,"\n"," "x7,")("," "x4,"| |"," "x2,"_"x3," "x2,"_"x3," ","|"x2,"\n"," "x6,"-","="x2,"-"," "x3,"| | / _ \\/ _ \\","|"x2,"\n"," "x13,"|8","|"x2," (_) |(_) ","|"x2,"\n"," "x12,"/"," "x3,"\\"x2,"_"x3,"/\\","_"x3,"(","%"x2,")\n"," "x11,"( ,-. )"," "x8,"|","'"x2,"|\n"," "x12,"\\| |/"," "x9,"|"x4,"\n"," "x26,"`","-"x2,"'\n","\n","\n",;1;

Hier das Script:

Wer noch weitere Vorschläge hat, wie man noch eleganteren Code erzeugen kann, immer her damit :)
