Package: aview
Version: 1.2-8.1
Severity: wishlist

Hi!

I have an idea how to improve the virtual resolution of the rendered images - just
let the program repeatedly slightly move the original image in circles "behind" the
ascii rastering matrix. Adding the time dimension increases the percieved
resolution, as known to anyone who ever tried to apply classic mosaic filter
to a movie.

Regards,

Patrik

P.S. This is actually similar to the trick used in computer vision
recognition for getting images with higher resolution than the used camera
supports.

Thanks for the bug report.

But, please write a patch. I will don't change the aview-source in
huge.

If you can't contribute a patch, contact the upstream author.

Ok?
