	I once tryed one and the other ... to be honest the only thing I liked,
and sometimes still use for, is the capability to copy/paste blocks of text (as
oposed to entire lines). But I really preffer any other editor that has an
overwrite mode.

I like ACiDDraw for Pictures  but The Draw For Fonts and Detail work.  
But then I'm not much of an artist.  (BTW I would e-mail this but I 
don't think I can get around any nospam addresses with bluewave)

As far as ASCII goes, neither, but for ANSI I use mostly TheDraw to actually
 draw the stuff, and ACiDDRAW to compile since TheDraw doesn't allow more than
 100 lines at a time.

Actually, I was wrong, I compile in QEdit, and if I need to do any last minute
 editing, I would use ACiDDRAW, but I really haven't needed to use it for that
 for a long time. Whenever I load a ANSI into ACiDDRAW after another one, it
 usually strips the last line off, so it really ins't that good for appending
 ANSI one after the other.
