emacs-21.3-no-x11 runing in aterm with transparent background and
Esetroot being used to display whatever image I want as a wallpaper
that is visable through the transparent aterm.  Put emacs in
picture-mode and hand draw everything.  This was the only drawing in
the series series that was partially converted.  I always sign drawing
done via a converter with :AA: in addition to the :F_P: since aalib is
my converter of choice.  It seems that on this piece the :AA: was left
out in error.  I checked all of the other parts of this series and
none of them used a converter.

I don't use Jave since I never had any luck with getting it to run a
few years ago.  I use aalib when I do decide to use a converter which
is not very often.

Here is the original aalib conversion that I fortunatly saved in my notes:
