DESCRIPTION

This function does the trick of converting the emulated framebuffer into high quality ASCII-art. If you want to be really fast, you might use aa_fastrender. If you want to emulate palette, use aa_renderpalette.

Note that to see the effect you need to call aa_flush too.

First call to this function may take a while, because the rendering tables are produced.
