Text-to-image would turn text such "Hello" into the hex codes corresponding to an image of the text. Probably not feasible though.

I still use Quigibo's BASIC Hex editor. I don't even use the one I wrote :P

Now if Runer decided to include Text-to-Image in his program...
I see, lol. If you don't use it, though, why not releasing the source or parts of it if it can be helpful for other sprite editor makers?

Because it has one bug: It doesn't generate Hex code  :P

It's very feasible, and is already on the list. All you would need to do is print the text onto the sprite.

So can you type in the text or you have to do the printing by hand? The latter takes forever and I try to avoid it as much as possible.

Print, as in using the OS text routines to print characters onto the screen.

No, I mean having to draw the image yourself so that it resembles text.

That's why I was trying to tell you that I plan to implement a text tool so you can type characters and they get drawn right into the sprite.

That sounds like a great feature! It would be useful for those designing custom fonts. ;D
