asciifire --------- Copyright 2009 (c) Papadopoulos Nikos <nikpapas@gmail.com> About ----- asciifire is an implementation of the classic fire effect in javascript. It renders the flames in ascii text. Usage ----- To use the script in your web page: 1. Include the script in your source. 2. Place a <pre id="fire">Loading...</pre> tag where you want the effect to appear. 3. Call the ascf_setup(width, height) function to setup the effect. 4. Call the ascf_render() function to initiate the animation. There are some functions that can be used to change the behaviour of the effect. For more on this please consult the source code. Palette ------- If you choose to use a custom palette you should take into consideration that a good palette is vital to the quality of the effect.
