/ Text Graphics for G-files, Articles and Messages- A primer and \
( Selection done for all that really care by The Slipped Disk. )
\_________________________________________________________________/
If you dont have 80 columns U/L, well, too bad. You're missing out.
This is probably the most useless file ever created by anyone, but I thought
it would be something that would be cute, so I thought "What the Hell? Can't
Hurt." So what we have here is a file that is devoted only to suggestions for
cute little text graphics thingies that you see on some text files done by
people.
SELECTION
=========
Here are the "Graphics" Characters that are commonly used in G-files to make
little pictures:
! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) _ - + = { } [ ] ; : ' ` " ~ ? > / \ < , .
A pretty good selection, if you ask me. Now, here are some suggestions as to
what could be done with them.
ARROWS
======
These are used for Highlighting things in your files. They should be used
sparingly.
----> ---=> )---> )---) ]-]-> )--#> )>-)> )%%%> /\/\>
=-=-> +++-> !--)> >)--) [===> }}}}} _-_-> ____) _--->
++++> -==-) )---@ ~~~~) \\\\> ////> }---> ****) XXXX)
BORDERS OR LINES
================
Used a lot. They can underline, border titles or sub-Title, or separate.
)()()()( +_+_+_+_+_+ <><><><><> ((((((()))))) %^%^%^%^% *&*&*&*&*&*
__ __ __

}{}{}{}{ [[]][[]][[]] )*()*()*() [-][-][-][-] >?<>?<>?< +==+==+==+==
`'`'`'`' ":":":":":": (&)(&)(&)(&) =-=-=-=-=-=-= ========= ____________
And so on. they can be as elaborate as you please.
PICTURES
========
Are not easy at all. Try copying these:
_ [] \ /
/ \ /---\ /=\ [] \ /
( ) ! ! \ \ [] \/ /\ /\
\_/ \---/ ( ( /----\ /--------------\ /\ / \/ \
\ \ \\\\\\\ ! /-------\ /\ ! / \/ \ /\
_-_-_-_-_ \ ) /////// ! ! ! \/ ! /______________\/__\
-_-_-_-_-_- / / \\\\\\\ ! ! ! ! \ \
\-----------/ / / ! \-------/ () ! ) )
! ! (_/ \--------------/ / \
! ! / \
! !
\---------/
THAT'S IT
=========
Sorry. I just got bored. See ya.
