(a heart)  :)

This is one I did last night, on my PC at home.  It looked pretty
 good there, but when I came over here to the labs and saw it
 on X-windows, it looked (insert expletive here meaning "bad").
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might "guarantee" as
 best as possible that ascii art will look decent no matter what
 type of terminal you are viewing it on?
