This

      .']['.
     O.'  '.O
   O          O
  O            O
  O            O
   O          O
     O[10ka]O

 Most of the time Kamui will post an address to view his/her work
in a gif ( view the santas ). The font ( Japanese's ) does not
display in most news readers that uses or set to strictly ASCII
or browsers that do not have the character set installed.

 Also it is a reply to a post that did not make thru the server
at least mine anyway.

Japanese character set. It's supposed to look something like this:

           /][\ 
         O /  \ O
       O          O
     O              O
     O              O
       O          O
         O[10ka]O

Cheers,

This diddle of mine symbolizes some wonderful
work, which multiplies the value of the diamond
by a factor of 13 :-) Even if it's only 2D now.
The little asterisks are to be read as hexagons
themselves, fitting in between the hexagon and
its circumcircle.( See NJAS A065802 )

In the case if you forgot that ASCII is now 8 bits length, 
I remind you that Every Coutry has a Charset for ASCII
And only the 127 first chars are American !
Now ASCII is 256 chars : the last 128 chars are coutry dependent.
Hope this helps..

My friends in Hong Kong use two bytes for every letter but only
the first 96 of each one of them.  I can't read them tho...  :-(

Nonsense. ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange)
is 7 bits, as it is defined in ISO-646.


> I remind you that Every Coutry has a Charset for ASCII

Every script system[1] has an 8 bit set, as defined in ISO-8895.
These are extended from ASCII, but are not part of ASCII themselves.

[1] you in France use the same ISO-8859-1 or ISO-8859-15 (same as -1,
but with Euro symbol added) that all other western european countries
use.


> And only the 127 first chars are American !

Actually they are alphabetical. Used also outside of the USA.

Script dependant. And not ASCII, and so not acceptable in ascii-art.

Ascii.art is _defined_ as using the ASCII subset of all the other
systems (ISO-8895 and a few others, like the ISO-2022-JP that KAMUI
used, or Unicode, or ISO-10646), for exactly the reason, that ASCII
will display everywhere. ISO-2022-JP does not display outside of
Japanese systems, and so is definitely totally off-topic here. And
KAMUI is a repeat offender at not accepting being critisized for this.


> Hope this helps..

Not really, as it is wrong.

And BTW: on Usenet, one _follows_ the original posters stuff with ones
additions. The original stuff is included to recall in the reader mind
the thread one is extending.

That should be done before adding new stuff, on planets wherte time
runs past to futire.. So it should be read before, to fullfill its
purpose.

That requires it to be on top, at least with scripts that are read top
to bottom.

At least you did not quote the entire post.

You are SO wrong!!!
ASCII stands for american Standard Code for Information Interchange. Note
the "American" in that sentence.
What you described were ISO-charsets.
