ASCII Stuff

I recently got some scripts that were nicely written, meaning well formatted, documented and structured. What I liked most was the clearly visible separation of the main code and the subroutines. The code blocks were separated by ASCII Code based letters as shown on the picture below.

    Hmmm… could that be a script from me? :)
    I used http://www.figlet.org/ to print out those ASCII banners.

    Ha , now that you mention it, Wieger must have re-used them based on what you did for us back in 2007. Correct !

    Reusing is good. I wish more people would share their code with others. And help others to reach their target faster.

    btw: Updated WP to 2.9.1 :) :)
