cowsay is a program that generates ASCII art pictures of a cow with a message. [2] It can also generate pictures using pre-made images of other animals, such as Tux the Penguin, the Linux mascot. It is written in Perl. There is also a related program called cowthink, with cows with thought bubbles rather than speech bubbles.
FIGlet is a computer program that generates text banners, in a variety of typefaces, composed of letters made up of conglomerations of smaller ASCII characters (see ASCII art). The name derives from "Frank, Ian and Glenn's letters". [4]
In some cases, the entire source code of a program is a piece of ASCII art – for instance, an entry to one of the earlier International Obfuscated C Code Contest is a program that adds numbers, but visually looks like a binary adder drawn in logic ports. [17] Some electronic schematic archives represent the circuits using ASCII art.
The hardware code page of the original IBM PC supplied the following box-drawing characters, in what DOS now calls code page 437. This subset of the Unicode box-drawing characters is thus included in WGL4 and is far more popular and likely to be rendered correctly:

SmallBASIC was designed for portability, and is written in C with separate modules containing any code that is unique to a particular platform. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] SmallBASIC is intended to support the same sorts of applications supported by GW-BASIC and QBasic on the IBM PC , with support for drawing Graphic Primitives to the screen, creating sounds ...
ASCII codes represent text in computers, telecommunications equipment, and other devices. ASCII has just 128 code points, of which only 95 are printable characters, which severely limit its scope. The set of available punctuation had significant impact on the syntax of computer languages and text markup.
AAlib is a software library which allows applications to automatically convert still and moving images into ASCII art. It was released by Jan Hubicka as part of the BBdemo project in 1997. It was released by Jan Hubicka as part of the BBdemo project in 1997.
