You really need colour and a graphical browser. links tries but doesn't get the colour right, and lynx hasn't a hope. For the black and white tty users among us, here's a quick perl munger: #!/usr/bin/perl -xwp chomp; s/\s+$//; s/^\s+//; s/$/ \n/; s/aa / /g; s/ae /::/g; s/ao /##/g; s/ea /88/g; s/ee / /g; s/eo /@@/g; s/\.\.\./ /g; __END__ I've only tried this on the Bart Simpson picture but it's trivial to convert to other pictures. -- Harry Mason ("hjm200.ecs@soton@ac@uk" =~ tr/@./.@/)
