Very interesting! Does it have a function to convert images to ascii art?

It doesn't. Thanks for the great question. However, I made another program a while back that plays GIFs and images in a text terminal similar to what you're describing (see https://github.com/cmang/gifterm), and I plan to incorporate that functionality into a future version of Durdraw.

I've come across jp2a in the past for converting jpeg-to-ascii:

and there is also this image and video-to-ascii tool in case it might be of use:
