The biggest problem is
you
don't have the line printers around to give you the OVER STRIKE graphics.
Where do you find Fortran programs on the web that do ASCII art? We do
have a working IBM 1130 with line printer here, and also have some
programs that do EBCDIC art (Snoopy, Sean Connery, Asterix, Wum and
Wendelin), and would like to have more. I would even sit at the 029 punch
and punch the program and data decks from listings.

PS:
We also have the 565 Calcomp plotter for the 1130, so "plotter art" is
welcome, too.
