I would like to create some simple line drawings by mixing line-drawing characters along with ordinary text. Surely the One True Editor is capable of that, but I haven't been able to glean any useful information on how to proceed from the Gnu Emacs Manual (Fifteenth Edition), the Gnu Emacs Lisp Reference Manual, or anything I could find doing a Goolge search. Can anyone offer me any tips? Thanks. --Greg
