ASCII stands for "American Standard Code for Information Interchange". It's a big
technical name for all plain ordinary text you see in newsgroups and sometimes on
the web. The only characters that can be used in ascii-art are pretty much what
you find on your keyboard, so (that little box, and Agent doesn't even let me do
it) doesn't work, because it doesn't show up the same on everyone's computer.
