I did. :) However it looks better in proportional font. And as I did not know the intention of the original poster, I thought it could help anyhow. But as I mentioned, this one is not done by me. My ASCII-Art is always done for fixed-font display. Ob-ASKey: O==m Joe -- The only intuitive interface is the nipple, everything else is learned. http://www.JoeKoperski.de/Joemino

The font is necessary to make the details of the different lines line up properly. That doesn't matter for a one-liner. For example, smileys work just fine in proportional fonts. -- __ __ _____ _____ ______ __ _ _ _____ __ ||| \ \ ) )/ / \|| | \ \ / / \ \ | \ | || | / / \| ) \ ||.. \ \/ /| |_/| | |_/ /| | | || \ | || || | / \ |.PP. \ / | | \| | | \ \| | | || |\_\| || || | / /\ \ _\/___ \_( \_\__/||_| \_\\_\__/_/ |_| |_||_| \_\__/|(_( \_\ |____ A S C I I A R T C H A T http://www.ludd.luth.se/~vk/ ___|

Yes, they do tend to wander around a bit, don't they? Sorry, couldn't resist. Seriously, Grant's a;;' looks pretty sheep-like to me. -- Ilmari Karonen If replying by e-mail, please replace ".invalid" with ".net" in address.
