Hasn’t everyone written one of those? I’m starting to think it’s
rite of passage. I wrote one that takes ASCII PPMs as input and
produces HTML tables as output.
My code is also capable of using characters in a <pre></pre>
section as pixels, dropping in the appropriate <span> tags,
either with class attributes and colours stored in a stylesheet,
or with style attributes and colours inlined in the tags.
If you want to see it, let me know.
OTOH, modern browsers let you embed an image in a document by way
of using a data: URI in the src attribute of an <img> (or in a
stylesheet) so the "need" (if there ever was one) for these HTML
table kludges is diminishing.
In any case, if I were you, I’d look into parsing PPM/PNM or XPM
files, and the name I’d consider is something like
Image::HTMLTableRender
Image::RenderToHTML
Definitely something in the Image:: TLNS, since that’s what it is
about.
