The following quoted text is from the web page.

     This only applies to, and is good for, high ASCII characters (or black and
white ANSI). Normal ASCII pictures look perfectly fine in Notepad . . . and
TheDraw, QEdit, and ACiDVIEW for that matter.

     You can make perfectly fine ASCII the way you are talking about with
TheDraw and ACiDDRAW, but since your program is FEEWARE, it does have a great
advantage there.

     BTW, does it view in color as well?
