  "github_readme_excerpt": "# CADUBI - Creative ASCII Drawing Utility By Ian\n\nThis Perl program was written sometime around 1997 -- many years before I knew\nanything about Perl or Unix -- and the code hasn\u0027t changed much since then. It\nhas, however, become very widely adopted and is available as a package on most\nLinux distributions.\n\nCADUBI is an application written in Perl that allows you to draw\ntext-based images that are viewable on typical unix-based consoles.\nUsually the applications that emulate these consoles support various\ntext modes, such as background and foreground colors, bold, and\ninverse. This text art, commonly called \"ASCII art,\" is used in\nvarious places such as online BBSes, email and login prompts.\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/statico/cadubi/master/screenshots/catfile.png\" width=\"150\"/\u003e \u003cimg src=\"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/statico/cadubi/master/screenshots/edit.png\" width=\"150\"/\u003e \u003cimg src=\"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/statico/cadubi/master/screenshots/help.png\" width=\"150\"/\u003e\n\n## Installation\n\n* [Homebrew](http://brew.sh/): `brew install cadubi`\n* [Debian](https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/cadubi) and [Ubuntu](http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/cadubi): `apt-get install cadubi`\n* From source:\n  * Perl 5.002 or later\n  * `Term::ReadKey` Perl module\n\n## Usage\n\nCADUBI has a \u0027pen\u0027 which describes the current mode. Properties of\nthe pen are the painting character, foreground color, background\ncolor, bold, inverse, and blink. Whenever you paint or use the text\nmode, the characters drawn on the screen will have the properties of\nthe pen. The current mode of the pen is shown at the bottom of the\nconsole and is what will be drawn on screen when you paint.\n\nMove around the cursor with the \u003ckbd\u003ei\u003c/kbd\u003e, \u003ckbd\u003ej\u003c/kbd\u003e, \u003ckbd\u003ek\u003c/kbd\u003e and \u003ckbd\u003el\u003c/kbd\u003e keys. Holding\ndown shift and typing these keys will move the cursor five spaces\ninstead of one. Pressing return/enter will move the cursor down one\nline and all the way to the left of the console.\n\nTo paint the cu",
