since proportional fonts screw up diagrams in comments, the solution
is to use device-independent diagrams in comments.  bitmaps are no
good.  postscript would be ok.  (whoops, that should be "pOSTsCRIPT")

and your programming/editing environment should know how to interpret
these embedded diagrams, and automatically pop up a picture for you.
