That is very cool. :)
But shouldn't it be like this for the symmetry?

That's exactly what I meant by using the fancy dots and things as well as
just the straight lines.
I first thought up the original version by pen rather than ASCII, in which
the 'e' and 'r' work well because you can distort them to work properly.
Obviously the translation to ascii is not so clear. Perhaps these 'E' 'R'
are more suited. I'll keep playing with it :)
btw, if you're interested in the symmetry idea check out:
