ASCII code charts are readily available 
everywhere on the web.    You can do all manner 
and sorts of stuff with ASCII, including 
graphics, even from a DOS prompt, with ASCII 
characters available from your keyboard.    ANSI 
allows color graphics...  :)


...they don't work on most laptop keyboards 
though... at least not Toshiba's 
keyboards.     Cut/copy&paste works though, if 
you're really dedicated.    You can draw a 'Vair as a sig line...
