To _create_ ascii art you need:

1. One functioning human brain
2. Knowledge of the format (read the FAQ)
3. One functioning computer
4. Ability to type text into the computer
5. One text editor

To _send_ ascii art in email you use:

* Copy-and-paste
  (How this is done depends on the computer and OS you're using)

As for e-mailing ASCII-art, just put a note to your sendee that what you
have sent is best viewed in a fixed width font. You can make suggestions
like Courier or Monaco.


NOTE: I do not pick up my mail from the idirect address. If you
are e-mailing and hit the reply button, add an "e" to "freent";
its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.
