Bandit (and an other Junoite): Go into the Menu "Options" and pick
"Font". From the Fonts available, choose FixedSys or some other fixed
width Font. Now, Whatever you type will line up properly on anyone's
screen if they are using a fixed width font. :)

By the way, Juno will allow you 5 lines of sig so if you delete the empty
line between "-El Bandit ..." and the ASCII Macarena, you'll be able to
fit in that little tidbit.
