ASCIIsvg is a layer of JavaScript functions that can be used in any HTML document to produce inline Scalable Vector Graphics viewable with both Internet Explorer+ Adobe SVGviewer and Firefox 1.5 and later. ASCIIsvg has been developed by Prof. Peter Jipsen at the university of Chapman. This plugin integrates ASCIIsvg into DokuWiki.

1. Download the source archive (~11k)from asciisvg
2. Unpack it in your Doku­Wiki plugins directory {dokuwiki}/lib/plugins (make sure, in­clu­ded sub­di­rec­to­ries are un­packed cor­rect­ly); this will create the following following folder:
   1. {dokuwiki}/lib/plugins/asciisvg.

with the following files

1. ASCIIsvg127.js
2. d.svg
3. script.js
4. syntax.php

Thats it!

 <asvg  width/height> ASCIIsvg notation goes here </asvg>

Example

<asvg 117/117>
initPicture(0,1,0)
a=[0,0]; b=[1,1]
rect(a,b)
stroke='red'
ellipse([.5,.5],.5,.25)
stroke='blue'
ellipse([.5,.5],.25,.5)
</asvg>

Here are some examples tested under DokuWiki. Simply copy paste them into a wiki page with installed asciisvg plugin.

    <asvg 117/117>
 
    initPicture(-2.2,2.2,-2.2)
    line([-2,-2],[2,2])
    marker = 'arrowdot'

    initPicture(-1,6,-1,6)
     axes()
     a = [0,0]
     b = [5,5]
     marker = 'dot'

• More examples in ASCIIsvg sandbox
• Asciisvg in use, see this image: asciisvg in use

• Interested developers are invited to correct/modify the code to obey the DokuWiki rules.
• This plugin supports ASCIIsvg 1.2.7. The newer version is included in ASCIIMatML and does not supported by this plugin .

1. There is a conflict with jsmath. When asciisvg is installed jsMath does not work anymore.
