I would like to keep some ASCII Chinese characters, but not those huge ones,
and preferably made up of the comma key (,), the forward/backward quote
keys (' and `), the semi-colon key(;) the colon key (:), and the period (.). 
If possible, I would also like to know how those characters are grouped 
together on a line.


Regards,
Wing L. Yip

Ho Ho!, very small :)

Here's something a bit bigger and stronger:

Okay, how about this:


    ,          
   __\__    _____
   | _ |     /|-,
   ' |-     / |/'
    / \       |~~~

This is what my teacher calls joseki (trans: technique, trick, tactic).
I don't know if this is Japanese or Chinese. But hopefully it will get 
people on the right track.

"Joseki"? Sounds like Japanese. You can't find "something-ki" in
Chinese, nor "something-saki", nor "something-waki"... In some sense
Japanese is easier to pronounce than Chinese (sometimes). I'm Chinese.
Look at my first name "Qiang" -- there's no "u" followed by the "Q" --
how do you pronounce it?

This is Chinese:

It pronouces as "fuo", means "Buddha".

It is Japanese. It pronounces as "jo-o-se-ki", means "traditional technik"
 and/or "heuristic algorythm".

For those of you who didn't get it: Jeroen's post was the character for
"small" and Wes' was the character for "big" 8-)
