+Ascii art
+=========
+
+To enable ascii art support, first install the
+`chardet <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/chardet>`_
+library, which is necessary for creating thumbnails of ascii art::
+
+ ./bin/easy_install chardet
+
+
+Next, modify (and possibly copy over from ``mediagoblin.ini``) your
+``mediagoblin_local.ini``. Uncomment or add to the media_types line
+'mediagoblin.media_types.ascii' like so::
+
+ media_types = mediagoblin.media_types.image, mediagoblin.media_types.ascii
+
+Now any .txt file you uploaded will be processed as ascii art!
