heh - if I had done this by hand, it could even be considered art - or at least
effort - since I didnt - its only spam - but still somehow worth posting - or
not? If I was an artist I could maybe create real art but all I get is this

nothing but doodles
btw, any idea how to draw a thin line in ascii that has this almost vertical
angle? my automatic converter leaves almost all of it blank since theres nothing
to fill a vertical which is more left than [ or more right than ] within the
characterspace - horizontal are less of a problem, multiple available chars
there _.-~

Here is the same drawing done with JavE (using the watermark feature to have your drawing as background, and the generic line tool to draw the lines upon): . . | . | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ....|______ | | | | `'|''''---+---....|...______ | | | | `''''''--------... | | | | | | | | | | | | .....|______ | | | | `'|''''---+---....|..._______ | | | | `''''''`-------.... | | | | | | | | | | | .' ----.|.....___|__ | | | | `''''|`-----+......._______ .' .' | | `'''''-------... | | | | | | | | | | | | ----.|.....___|__ | | | | `''''|'-----.'.......______ | | | | `''''''-------... | | | | | | | | | | | | ---+-.......|________| | | | |`''''''|'--------.........________ | | | | `''' | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ' Besides the 'generic' approach for drawing lines, there are also some alorithms available.
