pxlcon

Pxlcon is an tiny pixel art editor for the terminal, which you control with the keyboard instead of the mouse. It is a port of pxltrm to PowerShell, aiming for full cross-platform compatibility.

• Lightweight (less than 1.38 KB)
• RGB color support (for true-color terminals)
• Ability to write projects to a file.
• View pixel art in the terminal with cat.

Note: This project is currently WIP. If you break it or want a feature, file an issue!

• PowerShell 5 (or later)
• .NET 4.5 (or later)
