[nice hilbert curves clipped]

... is the source available? And how about replacing the dots (.) with 
underlines (_) and the exclamation-marks (!) with bars (|). So a hilbert 
would look like this:

Old version:

% filltest 8 8
._. ._._. ._._.
._! !_. !_! ._!
! ._. ! ._. !_.
!_! !_! ! !_._!
._. ._. ! ._._.
! !_! ! !_! ._!
!_. ._! ._. !_.
._! !_._! !_._!

New version:

% filltest 8 8
___ _____ _____
__| |__ |_| __|
| ___ | ___ |__
|_| |_| | |___|
___ ___ | _____
| |_| | |_| __|
|__ __| ___ |__
__| |___| |___|

... i think the visible effect will be much stronger. But nonetheless, i'd be 
interested in the source for the program.
