XEMU: ascii map of America wanted,
alt.ascii-art
· 15 messages · 26 Mar 1999 - 9 Apr 1999
Has anyone got an ascii-map of America, size roughly between
15 x 60 and 20 x 70 and preferably with state boundaries?
Wanted for a practical use instead of a slow-loading
clickable image map.

I didn't want to accuse someone of stealing. It's more an example in which I'd like to see the original author mentioned but others may not.

HUH? When did this come out? Congrats to everyone mentioned. It was a great
article!
It probably came out before I solved the sound sync theory...oh well. It
bugged me when he called it a weakness of ascii-art. I mean it took me a
whole day of thinking to prove that wrong. LOL For those of you who haven't
seen that it is possible to syncronize sound and ascii-art animation you can
see the first one ever done here:

Oh well, fame and glory for this hippie wannabe isn't going to happen in
Wired Mag. *grinning*

The original did and made sucha name for itself, everyone uses it for all of them now. Why anyone would use BMP's is beyond me. Those space hungry files really suck! SO, I create them use them and delete them right-a-way. It gets really old, but what can we do?
