Good idea! I've made similar things for my own projects but without uploading them as seperate files.

More than once I was thinking why Bioware did not make an ASCII(i) function. Did not knew how do it and actually it's so simple (not sure if it's your idea but nevertheless thank you).

Btw there seems to be a small bug in the ASCII function: while you check for values smaller than 0 or greater than 255 you still use the original value in GetSubString().

The only thing I would probably made differently is the ColorText function: I would use integers as colorcode and define some constants for the main colors (red = 16711680, blue = 255, green = 65280, perhaps random = -1). These constants could be used more or lesse directly to create the color codes (without lots of 'if/else if' or 'switch/case' statements.
