-FAQ
-===
-
- Q: The output looks like a mess in (TTY/PuTTY/other)!
-
- A: Unfortunately, there's nothing much we can do about it.
- See issue 1: https://github.com/erkin/ponysay/issues/1
-
- Q: You are missing (my-favourite-pony)!
-
- A: Ask and we'll add!
- https://github.com/erkin/ponysay/issues
-
- Q: Which programs do you use to generate the pony files?
-
- A: The pony files are actually mostly a bunch of selected browser
- ponies that are generated into cow files via img2xterm
- https://github.com/rossy2401/img2xterm
- or util-say.

-Providing ponies
-================
-
- Most pony images are browser ponies or desktop ponies,
- browser ponies is a port of desktop ponies, implementing it in JavaScript.
-
- Browser ponies: https://github.com/panzi/Browser-Ponies
- Desktop ponies: http://desktop-pony-team.deviantart.com/
-
- There is also a collection of ponies that are not yet pixelated in a Java reimplementation:
- https://github.com/maandree/unisay/tree/develop/dev/newponies
-
-
- New ponies can be created from regular images by using img2xterm
- https://github.com/rossy2401/img2xterm
- or util-say
- https://github.com/maandree/util-say
- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=60241
-
- Using util-say:
-
- img2ponysay -c 1 -2 -- SOURCE_IMAGE > PONY_FILE
-
- PONY_FILE should end with .pony and be localed in ponies/
-
- Omit -2 if the source image does not use double pixel size.
-
- (`-c 1` is no longer required.)
- For more information see https://github.com/maandree/util-say/wiki/img2ponysay
-
- When a pony is added please also add a ttypony version, but if you don't please
- state so in the pull request so we do not miss the create it; the simplest way to
- do this is to run `make -B ttyponies` after adding the ponies to ponies/.
-
- Running `make -B ttyponies` will build (or rebuild) all ttyponies with a pony present
- in ponies/, and creates all needed symlinks.
-
- To be able to run `make -B ttyponies` you must have the packages listed under
- [Dependencies for pony providers].
