I need an ascii version of that symbol you always used to get on old karate computer games? I don't know what it's called, it is cirular and black and white, and consists of two parts curled together, one black one white - Often used as a way of scoring in these martial art games. Any ideas anyone? -- -- Mork - M.J Turner - Coventry University, England mor...@nannoo.demon.co.uk Insomnia Mud - telnet:- 130.89.227.74 4000 www: http://crocus.warwick.ac.uk/~xuncx

Are you trying to say "yin & yang" ??? Because I believe that's what you are describing... --_____ _____ {~._.~} * >>>>>>>>> [ Glenn P. ** c12...@GTI.Net ] <<<<<<<<< * {~._.~} _( Y )_ /| ---------------------------- |\ _( Y )_ (:_~*~_:)\| "Babies in the sea?
