CIRCLES
==========================================================================
I find circles a very difficult shape, especially as they become
smaller.
I usually start with a template - e.g. the 2 speedos and work inside
or outside those:
90 100 90 100
80 \ 110 80 110
\
70 \ 120 70 120
\
60 \ 130 60 130
O O
50 140 50 \ 140
\
40 150 40 \ 150
mph mph \
30 160 30 \ 160
This is your code on the VAX This is your code on the SGI
Depending on your screen characteristics they will look like:
perfect circles
horizontal ovals
vertical ovals

Bryon DeLaBarre's "Chinese Face" makes quite a nice Circle.

Use your own version of "Find" and "Replace" to replace the
characters making this circle to characters of your own choice.
example:
Find "O" Replace "#"
Find "o" Replace "*"
