But only if everyone follows Alvaro's example and starts posting in HTML- I
hope that won't be the case- and we can just stick to the limitations of
ASCII art and pointers to web pages.
It's an interesting idea, though I'm not sure how usable it would be in
practice to show more than one or 2 components. I suppose if it is easy,
and everyone draws diagrams with it, and sends the ASCII text, people on
the list could put the text in their favourite word processor and convert
it back to the diagram...

PTM: I checked the font in http://www.fontage.com/alpha_c.html.
Funny, but of no use. Some odd transformers, logic symbols and antennas as
if someone had scanned an telephone handbook from late seventies. No
transistors or FET's

I found a copy (using AltaVista) at http://dingbats.i-us.com/index.htm. It is listed under
"Specialty"; it is a freeware download (there are many other
very cool fonts there as well). It does seem like a
cool idea, but it isn't clear to me how one would use the
font to create a schematic in a word processor. I would
imagine it would be more useful in a graphics program,
where you could move the items around arbitrarilly.

Subject: Electronic components font for shcematics
I don't know if this is of interest, but there is a freeware font with all
kind of electronic symbols in it. The font is called "carrelec.ttf".
It can solve the problems in this list to send schematics with little effort
and space.
This is an interesting site with many other fonts available.
I don't know if this is a useful method to interchange schemathics. I saw
the font and inmediatly associate it with the schematic thread of this list.
That's all.
