Are you viewing the posts in a fixed font? It seems you're using Outlook, so my guess is you're not. You should be able to find somewhere in Outlooks settings where you can choose a fixed font (a font where all characters have an equal width) -- //anders

However, several Usenet readers now display messages in a proportional font (where different characters are different widths). The following two lines tell you which kind of font you're using. The arrow ends up in a different place for different font types and is right most of the time: You are using a [Proportional] [Monospaced] font ................................. --^-- Also, to see what your program is doing, look at these two lines: iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii| WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW| If they look the same length, you're using a fixed-width font and all should be ok. If the second line is longer than the first, you need to change your settings to use a fixed-width font. In Netscape Messenger, this option is set in Edit > Preferences > Mail & Newsgroups. In Outlook Express, the option is set in View > Options > Fonts (see Question 20) In Forte Agent, the option is set in Options > Display Preferences > Fonts and Free Agent, the option is set in Options > General Preferences > Fonts The AOL newsreader can not, at the time of writing, display Usenet messages in a fixed-width font at all. Detailed information on how to configure other Usenet readers is available at the: ASCII-Art Documentation Archive (see the beginning of this FAQ). If all else fails, copy the text of the picture from your program and paste it into a text editor (such as Notepad). It's a hassle, but at least you'll get to see the pictures.
I just followed your indications and can now see all your beautiful work ! thank you so much for your help Nicole "MJP" <n...@email.right.now> a �crit dans le message de news: lte...@4ax.com... > On Tue, 28 Feb 2006 20:45:30 +0100, <plu...@laposte.net> wrote: > >>Hi everybody >> >>I' new here and enjoy your work but I cannot see the ascii correctly, I >>just >>copy past this one and here is what I see > > what you posted back looked fin here > > you most likely need to change your font, here is item #5 from the ASCII > Art faq: > > [5] What font do you use for ASCII art? > ======================================================================== > ASCII art is created using a fixed-width font (like on a traditional > typewriter), because this is the only way to make it portable. > However, several Usenet readers now display messages in a > proportional font (where different characters are different widths). > > The following two lines tell you which kind of font you're using. > The arrow ends up in a different place for different font types and > is right most of the time: > > You are using a [Proportional] [Monospaced] font > ................................. --^-- > > Also, to see what your program is doing, look at these two lines: > iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii| > WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW| > If they look the same length, you're using a fixed-width font and > all should be ok.
