[TALK] Another EDITING question.

Operating in a Unix environment with the usual editing stuff, nothing fancy;
is there any way of doing this easily:-

Having a file with two ascii-pictures, of about the same height, and each one
covering less than half the screen width, to juxtapose them side-by-side
on the screen?

It can be done laboriously line-by-line, but in the immortal words of
`The Candidate',  "There *has* to be a better way!"

Thanks.
