cacaview is a simple image viewer for the terminal. It opens most image

ASCII art. The user can zoom and scroll the image, set the dithering method
or enable anti-aliasing.

the screen, cacafire is a port of AALib's aafire and displays burning ASCII
art flames, cacamoir animates colourful moire circles and cacaplas displays
an old school plasma effect.

such as line and ellipses drawing, triangle filling and sprite blitting.
