Hi Jerry,

I think getting ASCII output to be correct is a really tough task. I remember playing with it a while back (say, 11 years back - yes, that old). I played with _ASCIIROWS/_ASCIICOLS at that time, but finally gave up and wrote a program to output to file directly.

So, it may be better to use other formats or means to generate the file.
