Hi,

All:
There's a listing on eBay for ASCII art TTY printouts (#8707360741)
and it raised an interesting question. I remember as a kid going to my
father's office (he worked for New York Telephone in New York City) at
Christmas and they had various computer systems that they let the kids play
on. One of them (I don't remember which) had a program to print calendars.
In the eBay listing, there's a Snoopy Red Barron calendar, which I
distinctly remember printing out.
What program would have made this calendar and is one still
available, somewhere, that I could run on Windows or through something like
SIMH?
I have a few ASCII art pics as BASIC listings, and as plain text files,
including Snoopy and Spock (both on the wall behind me, on green lined
paper naturally...). Adding the calender part could be done in unix with
cal, of course.
I could easily email 'em to you. There's a website somewhere with a whole
load of them, but I forget the url.
