-Summary: Aewan is a multi-layered ascii-art/animation editor that produces
-both stand-alone cat-able art files and an easy-to-parse format for integration
-in your terminal applications. It is primarily designed for Linux, although it
-currently also compiles under FreeBSD and possibly other *NIX systems.

-More details: Aewan is a curses-based program that allows for the creation and
-editing of ascii art. The user is able to move the cursor around the screen by
-means of the arrow keys and 'paint' characters by pressing the corresponding
-keys. There are dialog boxes that allow the user to choose foreground and
-background colors, as well as bold and blink attributes. The user may also
-select rectangular areas of the canvas in order to move, copy and paste them.
-Aewan also supports 'intelligent' horizontal and vertical flipping (e.g.
-converts '\' to '/', etc).

-What sets Aewan apart from similar projects is the fact that it can work with
-multiple layers, and has the ability to turn transparency and visibility on and
-off for each layer. A layer dialog is provided through which the user can
-change the order of the layers. Thus, each layer can be edited independently in
-order to generate a composite drawing. Instead of using the layers for
-compositing, it is also possible to use the layers as frames for an animation,
-thus enabling the user to create ascii animations with Aewan.

-Aewan can export animations to a "less movie", that is, a regular file that
-will show the animation when when paged through in the 'less' pager or similar
-program (even Notepad will work if you don't need color). It can also export a
-shellscript which will play the animation on the terminal when executed.

-The file format is easy to parse, so it is easy to write a terminal-based
-application that uses the Aewan files to display onscreen. Currently it has
-been tested on the Linux terminal, rxvt, xterm, the Cygwin terminal and the
-FreeBSD console.
