Do you know if Acid Draw is still commercial?

Tell me about good alternative ANSI- and ASCII-art drawing tools.

I don't know about ANSI art, but ASCII art is usually drawn with a text editor
like vi, emacs, Notepad, or DOS Edit. Alternatively you could try JavE
<http://www.jave.de/> which is a powerful editor specifically for ASCII art.

I used TheDRAW 6 or 7 years ago to create ANSI art for a BBS... it was 
freeware.
