Do what, Zoyt?

If you mean import graphics, this is what I (and Bortels) did:

  1. Convert the image to Plain PPM. For this, I used the netpnm tools, available for Linux and almost certainly for MacOSX.
  2. That filetype is a list of numbers giving the RGB values for each pixel. A simple script like mine above converts that to a load of image:set commands.
  3. Cut and paste the resulting file into Codea.

@Zoyt… I just came across this Mac application to do pixel art:

And thought it might be of interest to you.

Hmm, Pixen looks cool, but doesn’t export as Cade, as far as I can tell. Correct me if I’m wrong.
