ditaa is a small command-line utility written in Java, that can convert diagrams drawn using ascii art ('drawings' that contain characters that resemble lines like | / - ), into proper bitmap graphics. See http://ditaa.sourceforge.net/ for more details.
Ditaa Parameters
You can turn on/off the drop-shadow effect for ditaa diagrams. The drop-shadow effect is also supported by nearly all PlantUML diagrams (using Svek rendering mode). Additional for ditaa diagrams there is a parameter to prevents the separation of common edges of shapes. You can see the difference below:
