I have been working on a tool to semi-automate the process of removing ASCII art and pointless comments (ref: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62475). Unless someone has an alternate suggestion, for the time being I will host it here: https://bitbucket.org/MostThingsWeb/asciitool.
Screenshots: http://imgur.com/a/BO0t2 I say the tool is semi-automated because while it will make a suggestion regarding what to do with each comment, it is ultimately up to you to decide what to do. The tool lets you jump immediately into Vim to edit either its suggestion or the original comment. It provides 5 lines of context before and after, like git diff. It makes a best effort at preserving justification (leading whitespace). The only preq is colorama: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/colorama I'd be interested in getting some feedback regarding this, whether it's bug reports, suggested features, or even just "why bother?". If you're interested in trying it out, I'd recommend cloning the repo linked above since I'm making fixes and improvements almost each day.
