A nice unicorn ?

A nice unicorn ?

alt.ascii-art · 6 messages · 18 May 1999 - 24 May 1999
Hi there.
I'm very impressed by the ascii-art i can see here and I was
wondering if someone could draw me an unicorn to display
on my login screen.
It would be nice if it could be aroud this size so it can fit in
the screen:

Well it makes about 16 lines, but don't feel limitated about this it
can be a little taller or smaller.
Please don't give me WWW links since copy/paste from a web page gives 
strange things on the login screen.

BTW, if a linux (redhat) user knows about that: I can copy/paste an ascii-art
drawing from a wab page in a file, and then display it with cat with no 
problems. But if i try to put it on the login screen  (by making 
cat picture.ascii>/etc/issue) it seems some lines are not where they should 
be?? I don't have this problem if i copy an image from this group...

Thanx in advance.
bye

/etc/issue has a problem with spaces, I'm not sure why, but in ANY
linux, u cant have ascii in the /etc/issue, but you CAN have it in
/etc/motd

Well it will be small for my login screen, but it's cute.

nope. I've got an ascii-art in /etc/issue, and it's correctly displayed.

Sorry, but there's no such daddy unicorn in your post (well, *I* can't
see it).

Here's a unicorn I made a while ago (20 rows). Maybe it's of some use...
It's pegacide counterpart comes along as a bonus. =)
