The sector editor won't know what the picture looks like, so it can't combine upper and lower case a-f. must pick one or the other and use it in the display. Of course, since I posted, I modified my buffer display to a more conventional hex on the left, ascii on the right format, and realized (D'oh!) I have a 16 character wide ascii canvas on the left! So conventional Ascii art should work just fine! Now I'm off mining for 16 x 32 ascii art... Rufus
