ASCII Art

Sometimes I have to develop softwares that send e-mails with reports of activities for tracking purposes, i.e., sending e-mails when a task is completed, the error log, this kind of stuff.

Being an old-timer, I like to use those signature graphs made out with characters, like below:

 ___    _          ___              _                        _   
| _ \_ | |___ _ _ |   \ _____ _____| |___ _ __ _ __  ___ _ _| |_ 
|  _/ || / _ \ ' \| |) / -_) V / -_) / _ \ '_ \ '  \/ -_) ' \  _|
|_|  \__/\___/_||_|___/\___|\_/\___|_\___/ .__/_|_|_\___|_||_\__|
                                         |_|                     

I remember being quite a pain writing those things, but for quite some time now, I use a nice website that provides me with this graphs when I need them.

It's called ASCII Generator, and it's free.
