help request: image to text converter - no: icons set.

General
1

Hi everyone!
I am embedding some icons in my app, i want to convert them into text, but i cant find back the awsome converters that some of you have posted recently. Can someone post the adequate link?
Or even better: has anyone a full set of icons ready to use in text coding he wants to share?
Thanks for your help.
EDIT: i found it back: it is the RLE compressor from @Ignatz

Finally i found the text coding too much text.
So i made this little utility to get the icons i need
I get the icon set from a free web source below (downloaded only once).
You select the icon, then save with the name you want.



--# Main
-- test icon web

-- Use this function to perform your initial setup
function setup()
    local url = "http://media.smashingmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/icons-preview.png"
    x0,y0=0,0
    img0 = readImage("Documents:icons")
    if img0 then start() else http.request(url,save) end
end

function start()
    collectgarbage()
    img0 = readImage("Documents:icons")
    img = image(14*34,15*34)
    setContext(img)
    noSmooth()
    for x=1,14 do
        for y=1,15 do
            ico = getIcon(x,y)
            sprite(ico,(x-1)*34+16,(y-1)*34+16)
        end
    end
    setContext()
    setContext(ico)
        background(255, 255, 255, 255)
    setContext()

    parameter.text("name","icon-xxx")
    parameter.action("save selected icon",function()
            saveImage("Documents:"..name,getIcon(x0+1,y0+1))
            print("image saved to : "..name)
        end)
end

function getIcon(nx,ny)
    local w,h = 77,62
    if nx<0  then nx=0 end
    if nx>14 then nx=14 end
    local x1 = w*(nx-1) +1
    if ny<0  then ny=0 end
    if ny>15 then ny=15 end
    local y1 = h*(ny-1) +1
    local icon = img0:copy(x1,y1,32,32)
    return icon
end

function save(img)
    saveImage("Documents:icons",img)
    start()
end
-- This function gets called once every frame
function draw()
    -- This sets a dark background color 
    background(255, 82, 0, 255)
    fill(255, 255, 255, 255)
    fontSize(20)
    if ico then
    text("tap the icon you want then save it to your documents",WIDTH/2,HEIGHT*7/8)
    noSmooth()
    spriteMode(CORNER)
    sprite(ico,WIDTH/8+34*x0,HEIGHT/8+34*y0)
    sprite(img,WIDTH/8,HEIGHT/8)
    else
    text("wait for the image to be downloaded...",WIDTH/2,HEIGHT*7/8)
    end
end
function touched(touch)
    local x,y = touch.x,touch.y
    x0,y0 = math.floor((x-WIDTH/8)/34),math.floor((y-HEIGHT/8)/34)
end
