A downloadable tool for Windows

Spruce up your reading with PICO-TEXT!

Share poems, short stories, and more by creating a simple .txt file and then viewing it within PICO-TEXT. This was a short and sweet project made in LÖVE2D intended as a fun way to display textual content.

Left-click to go to the next page, right-click to go to the previous page. Hover the mouse near the bottom of the screen to open the menu.

Files MUST be in .txt format to read.

To create a file to show in PICO-TEXT, create a new .txt file. Creating a new line in the document will create a new line in PICO-TEXT [1]. Two new lines in a row will create a new page [2]. The image below shows a document that would generate 5 pages.


Future work:

  • more control over themes
  • more animations to choose from
  • scaling the font size
