Are you a programmer Faux_Pseudo? Programming those algorithms seems like quite a task. I don't even know how you would begin. What are some examples of what is allowed in ascii-art that the program AI could actually do? Likewise what is not? I know that a tab is not allowed, others? You see ascii-art is so different to each artist. It would be very hard to say this is what you can and can't do because each artist likes it to look different. Does anybody have some set rules that would work, or that program may never be.
