Huh?  Control codes?  In a ascii picture?  What are we talking about here?
Not being a programer er what, I'm a bit confused bout what control codes
are and what they are doing in an ascii drawing and what do they do?
Is this like a virus or something?

Control codes are the ASCII chars between 0 and 32 which have special 
functions (e.g. 7 makes a beep) if you use these in a pictures it 
screws up some newsreaders which try to interperet the control codes 
as instructions to do. For more info read the control code warning 
that gets posted here weekly.

Hope this helps.
