Here's a "possible" by-product. I know it's of no use for sigs etc. But maybe -- one day -- we'll all have 24 inch monitors and 2560 x 3200 resolution... Please, tell me in case a (FIGLet) font like this has been done before.... ---------1--------2---------3-d possib4e box fon5 --------6---------7---------8 ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ /\ \ /\ \/\ \ /\ \/\ \ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ \___\ _\ / /_ _\ / / / /_ _\ / / / / /\ \/___/ \ /\ \/___/\/___/ \ /\ \/___/\/___/ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ / \___\ _\ / / / /_ _\ / / / / / / \ / /_ ____ /\ \/___/\/___/ \ /\ \/___/\/___/\/___/ \/___/ \/\ \ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ / \___\ \___\ \ / / \ / / \ / / / / / / \ / / / / \/___/ \/___/ \/___/\/___/\/___/ \/___/\/___/ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ /\ \/\ \ /\ \/\ \/\ \ /\ \/\ \/\ \ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ _\ / / / /_ _\ / / / / / / _\ / / / / / / /\ \/___/\/___/ \ /\ \/___/\/___/\/___/ /\ \/___/\/___/\/___/ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ \___\ _\ / /_ _\ / / _\ / / / /_ _\ / / / / /\ \/___/ \/\ \/___/ /\ \/___/\/___/ \ /\ \/___/\/___/ / \___\ \___\ \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ / \___\ \ / / / / / / \ / / / / / / \ / / \/___/\/___/\/___/ \/___/\/___/\/___/ \/___/ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ /\ \/\ \ /\ \ /\ \ /\ \ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ _\ / / / / ____ _\ / /_ _\ / / _\ / / /\ \/___/\/___/ /\ \ /\ \/___/ \/\ \/___/ /\ \/___/ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ / \___\ \ / /_ ____ _\ / / _\ / / / / / / _\ / / \/___/ \/\ \/\ \/___/ /\ \/___/\/___/\/___/ /\ \/___/ / \___\ \___\ \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \ / / / / / / \ / / \ / / \ / / \/___/\/___/\/___/ \/___/ \/___/ \/___/ ____ ____ ____ ____ /\ \ /\ \ /\ \ /\ \ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ _\ / / _\ / /_ \ / / _\ / / /\ \/___/ /\ \/___/ \ \/___/ /\ \/___/ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ ____ _\ / / _\ / / / /_ _\ / /_ ____ /\ \/\ \/___/ /\ \/___/\/___/ \ /\ \/___/ \/\ \ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ \ / / / / \ / / \ / / \ / / / / / / \/___/\/___/ \/___/ \/___/ \/___/\/___/\/___/ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ /\ \ /\ \ /\ \/\ \/\ \ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ _\ / /_ _\ / /_ _\ / / / / / / /\ \/___/ \/\ \/___/ \ /\ \/___/\/___/\/___/ / \___\ \___\ \___\ \___\ / \___\ / \___\ _\ / / / / / / / /_ _\ / / _\ / / /\ \/___/\/___/\/___/\/___/ \ /\ \/___/ /\ \/___/ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \ / / \ / / \ / / \ / / \ / / \/___/ \/___/ \/___/ \/___/ \/___/ ___ ____ ____ ____ ___ ____ /\ \/\ \ /\ \/\ \ /\ \/\ \ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ \___\ _\ / / / /_ _\ / / / /_ _\ / / / /_ /\ \/___/\/___/ \ /\ \/___/\/___/ \ /\ \/___/\/___/ \ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \ / /_ _\ / / _\ / / / / / / \ / /_ _\ / /_ \/___/ \/\ \/___/ /\ \/___/\/___/\/___/ \/___/ \/\ \/___/ \ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ \ / / / / \ / / \ / / / / / / \/___/\/___/ \/___/ \/___/\/___/\/___/ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ /\ \/\ \ /\ \/\ \ /\ \/\ \/\ \ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ _\ / / / /_ _\ / / / / \ / / / / / / /\ \/___/\/___/ \ /\ \/___/\/___/ \/___/\/___/\/___/ / \___\ \___\ \___\ / \___\ / \___\ _\ / / / / / / ____ _\ / / _\ / / /\ \/___/\/___/\/___/ /\ \/\ \/___/ /\ \/___/ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ \ / / \ / / \ / / / / \ / / \/___/ \/___/ \/___/\/___/ \/___/ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ /\ \ /\ \ /\ \ /\ \ /\ \ /\ \ /\ \ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ _\ / / _\ / / \ / /_ _\ / / \ / /_ _\ / /_ _\ / / /\ \/___/ /\ \/___/ \/___/ \/\ \/___/ \/___/ \/\ \/___/ \/\ \/___/ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ \___\ \ / /_ _\ / / \ / / / / \ / / / / / / / / \/___/ \/\ \/___/ \/___/\/___/ \/___/\/___/\/___/\/___/ / \___\ \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \ / / / / \ / / \ / / \ / / \/___/\/___/ \/___/ \/___/ \/___/ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ /\ \ /\ \ /\ \ /\ \ /\ \/\ \/\ \ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ \ / /_ \ / / \ / /_ \ / / \ / / / / / / \/___/ \ \/___/ \/___/ \ \/___/ \/___/\/___/\/___/ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ ___ \ / /_ _\ / / _\ / /_ ____ /\ \ \/___/ \ /\ \/___/ /\ \/___/ \/\ \ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ \ / / \ / / \ / / \ / / / / / / \/___/ \/___/ \/___/ \/___/\/___/\/___/ ____ ____ /\ \ /\ \ / \___\ / \___\ ___ \ / /_ _\ / /_ /\ \ \/___/ \ /\ \/___/ \ / \___\ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ \ / /_ \ / / _\ / / / /_ \/___/ \ \/___/ /\ \/___/\/___/ \ / \___\ / \___\ \___\ \___\ \ / / \ / / / / / / \/___/ \/___/\/___/\/___/ ---------1--------2---------3---------4---mic---5---------6---------7---------8 --mic at dataweb dot nl
