title: Python ASCII Graph Drawing
body: <p>I'm looking for a library to draw ASCII graphs (for use in a console) with Python. The graph is quite simple: it's only a flow chart for pipelines.</p>
  
  <p>I saw NetworkX and igraph, but didn't see a way to output to ascii.</p>
  
  <p>Do you have experience in this?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks a lot!</p>

  <p>EDIT 1:
  I actually found a library doing what I need, but it's in perl <a href="http://bloodgate.com/perl/graph/manual/output.html" rel="noreferrer">Graph::Easy</a> . I could call the code from python but I don't like the idea too much... still looking for a python solution :)</p>
