[Docutils-users] Inculding an ASCII banner in HTML output.

Thanks.

I am trying to include an ASCII banner, as part of program
documentation, within an HTML file. I have tried several ways but
rst2html.py keeps rejecting it.

ASCII Banner:
__ __ ____
| \/ |_ _| _ \ _ __ ___ __ _
| |\/| | | | | |_) | '__/ _ \ / _` |
| | | | |_| | __/| | | (_) | (_| |
|_| |_|\__, |_| |_| \___/ \__, |
|___/ |___/

RST File:
