Uniline goes 2.5 DimensionsUniline for Emacs has been around for almost 2 years. It has undergone continuous improvement based on users feedback. Today it publishes the 2.5 D feature.Uniline is an Emacs package for drawing all kinds of textual diagrams and sketches. It leverages the Unicode box-drawing characters. There are NO graphic formats involved (as PNG, SVG, or JPG). Therefore Uniline is suitable for adding diagrams right into pure text documents, either source code, Org-Mode notes, Markdown documents and so on.Think of Uniline-mode as the venerable Artist-mode and Picture-mode of the last century, with UNICODE instead of ASCII.2.5 D means "two and a half dimensions", that is: more than 2D and less than 3D. 2.5 D traditionally refers to drawings giving the illusion of etched in or out objects, using shadows. The 2.5 D feature is available through 12 new brushes. Right now those brushes are accessible only under the Hydra user-interface. Transient interface coming soon.The package is available on Melpa and GitHub.See a gallery of drawings here: github.com/tbanel/unilineHave fun!
