Have you been drawing your helpful diagrams using Emacs’s ability to
insert individual graphic characters (for example, ┌, ┴, ┤), or is there
a package that you can recommend that allows for describing the
diagrams, and then draws them?

It would be helpful for many people who ask question and who provide
answers if they were able to (easily) draw diagrams to illustrate their
words.

Thank you in advance.
