|I use Topaz new as my ascii viewing font,It only has glyphs for the standard
|ascii codes,so i see a "!" or a little rectangle for the other charectars...
|This makes it very easy to spot "offending" characters in a ascii drawing.
|I was wondering,What was the character supposed to be,or atleast what font
|are you using....
|
|Also,yes i know this is bieng picky,but wasnt the characters for this
|challenge supposed to be confined to:
|`~!@^*()_{}|[];,.
|
|meaning that you are disqualified to win any of the fantastic prizes
|that may or may not be given out by someone or the other?

'--------------------------
I don't know about any other OSs, but DOS and Windoze won't let you have a
filename with a * cos it uses it as a wildcard character.
*.txt - All files with .txt at the end.
*.htm* - Any files with .htm in their name ii .htm or .html
???.txt - three characters followed by .txt.
Any attempt to create a filename with a * in it produces and error.
