## About Text-Drawing This library implements some functions to draw graphics using pure Unicode text only. The intention is to allow you to create more meaningful debugging output in things like ``describe`` or documentation. ## How To You can print things with the ``style``, ``fill``, ``table``, ``tree``, ``node``, ``box``, ``align``, ``progress``, ``check``, ``radio``, ``line``, and ``plot`` functions. Once you have something drawn, you can transform that with ``pad``, ``translate``, ``composite``, ``rows``, and ``compose``. :: common lisp (compose T (0 0 (fill 40 15 :background :gray)) (1 1 (box (rows (check T :label "Implement") (check T :label "Document") (check NIL :label "Publish")) :align :left)) (25 7 (box "New library!")) (14 4 (line 11 5 :start :circle :end T)) (2 11 (box "The Shinmera Process" :width 36 :background :black))) ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒┌───────────┐▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒│☑▒Implement│▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒│☑▒Document │▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒│☐▒Publish  │○────╮▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒└───────────┘▒▒▒▒▒│▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒│▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒│▒▒▒▒▒┌────────────┐▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒╰────⭢│New▒library!│▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒└────────────┘▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▗▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▖▒▒ ▒▒▐███████The▒Shinmera▒Process███████▌▒▒ ▒▒▝▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▘▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ::
