I have been working on this for ages! It is by no means finished but
I have to stop somewhere. Please note that you see here before your
unbelieving eyes the Ascii representation of six pillows that were
kicked and pushed into shape for a drawing more than 500 years ago.
Ah yes, and this is an "organic" product. Only myself, my Emacs and of
course a book with the print of the original were used.

Please post a URL to a screen shot of your font (that is most definitely not Courier New - or at least not the "Courier New" that is housed on this ancient PC computer) Courier New has serifs on just about every letter, uppercase and lower case. _ _ ___ _ _ | | | ) | ____ | __ __ __, __ | | |-' | | ` | /__\ '__| (__ /__\ '__' _|_ \ _|__| |__/ _|_ \__ (__|_ ,__) \__ | _|_ My recollection of the font you like to use would look roughly like this ___ | | | ) | __ | __ __ __ __ | | |-' | | ` | /__\ __| (__ /__\ '__' | \ |__ |__/ | \__ (__| __) \__ | | rather than roughly like the above rendition of "Courier New" that I have in my character set. The "15x9" (was that the number?) you use has serifs on just a few of the uppercase letters. -llizard P.S.

In fact the 9x15 is much better than Courier (for Ascii), as are some other fonts that I can use with Emacs. For some pictures I still use Courier (don't actually know if it's "new"). That all depends on the size of picture and display. The reason for my remark was the memory of getting a full load of screenshots from mic that showed me that the same fonts are quite slim on his Windows computer whereas my Emacs shows them very wide. > P.S.

Behold: 9x15. http://www.lgm.cl/files/misc.9x15.gif I agree in that it's an excellent font for Ascii art. In fact, that's how I have set my xterm right now. -- Luis Alejandro Gonz�lez Miranda (LU:79863) Construcci�n Civil UC lag...@puc.cl -- http://www.lgm.cl/ -- http://test.keenspace.com/ -- Vota por la Isla de Pascua en http://www.newsevenwonders.com/ - ... pero al menos el motor de b�squeda de mi sitio funciona. :-p

Thanks for the palette - of course I take it as an award. ASCII awards have not yet suffered from inflation. Only my ego will probably do just that. Thanks for the late but lovely feedback! :) Andreas -- ________________________________________________ http://www.ascii-art.de
