Re: GFI (again)



What a great circuit diagram. How long did it take you to draw it? Why doesn't
someone write an applet to make line drawings in e-mail?

Thanks. About 5 minutes. Once you have the mental picture, ASCII art
flows pretty quickly.

In the near future we will all have graphically capable HTML mail browsers
and can share our visual ideas with .gif, .jpg, etc, pictures. I could
have done a much nicer job with Paint Shop Pro, but I try to remember that
there are still a number of people reading listserv mail with text-only
software.

ASCII art is pretty bad art, but it's good mental exercise: how can you
convey a visual concept using only the most primitive elements?

Best wishes,

Larry
