well, ideally someone would write some elisp that lets those
programmers w/ artistic bent render their algorithmic ideas,
so that the distinction between "artist" and "coder" is
limited only by the tools available.  anyway, here's a plug
for some xpm generation code:

       dist-lisp-index.html

specifically, look for xpm-fulmination.el.  this small library
is used, for example, by fulminate-gnugo-xpms.el, which clearly
demonstrates the limit of my personal artistry (drawing circles
and "rectilinear forms" :-).
