#Who needs a GUI anyway?

code-golf ascii-art

Most people like GUIs.

You don't.

They say that GUI's show them pretty pictures.

##Your task:

Write a program that displays said image in full 256-colour ANSI art in the terminal. Because you need to show them your leet skillz at programming, you have decided to write this as short as possible. "That's a program?" - Some user

#Challenge

• Given input from stdin or the command line of an image filename, the program must output it to stdout in ANSI.

• To output a string in green (#00FF00), you can print \x1b[48;5;46mInsert text here! where \x1b is codepoint 27 (hex 1b).

• \x1b[48;5;<bgcode>m sets the colour.

• At the end of each line, the colour formatting should be reset so not to make the output look ugly on terminals with a resolution higher than 80x24 set.

• Your program must support at least one of the following image file formats: PNG, JPG, BMP, PPM, SVG

• You may use image processing libraries to parse images.

• The output must be viewable in any terminal sized over 80x24.

• If the longest side is the x-axis, its length must be resized to 80.

• If the longest side is the y-axis, its length must be resized to 24.

• The aspect ratio of the image must be kept the same. Scale using min(80/X,24/Y), rounding down

• The output can be assumed to be a console that supports ANSI.

• Each character of the resized image represents 1 pixel.

• The characters printed must be a space.

• The colour for an individual pixel must be the closest available colour in the colour map (Text version in wikipedia link above).

• In this case, the similarity of 2 colours can be defined as: ((R1-R2)^2+(G1-G2)^2+(B1-B2)^2)^0.5 where results closer to zero indicate closer similarity.

• If your image format supports the alpha channel, you may assume it is empty/doesn't exist.

##Example

Found here is our beloved logo. This hexdump is what your program should output given that image as an input.
