I'm creating an add-on to Kat's random ascii-art generator (see following:

), tentatively titled "Kat's random ascii-art generator: The Addon".  It
will feature natural language processing (in both English and Esperanto), a
fractal-based pixel descrambler, and browser independant hard copy output
(with use of a printer, not included).  It's still in the pre-alpha testing
phase though, and budget cuts might force even more corner cuts.

Donations welcome! *hint, hint*
