This is really great, and I am happy you posted this, but somehow it seems a
bit, well, ironic, that we are discussing ways to make ascii art in 2003 when
there are now plenty of much better alternatives. Sort of like a bunch of cave
people discussing how to make flint arrowheads while those around them (like
W3C, 3GPP, ITU) are busy making arrowheads out of bronze.
