New .local/bin/spam-ascii POSIX shell script: resolves a pattern to a file in ~/ascii with this order: 1. exact filename match 2. exact name + common ASCII-art extension (.txt/.ans/.asc) 3. first case-insensitive substring match (sorted alphabetically) Non-zero exit + stderr-ish error if nothing matches, so /spam prints 'no match in ~/ascii for: <pattern>' instead of spewing a missing-file error. Rewire the irssi /spam alias to call the script instead of hardcoding 'cat ~/ascii/$0'. Now: /spam mario -> matches ~/ascii/mario.txt or ~/ascii/Mario_art.ans /spam MARIO -> case-insensitive /spam nothere -> 'no match in ~/ascii for: nothere'

# 1. exact filename match: ~/ascii/<pattern>

# 2. exact name + common extension: <pattern>.txt, .ans, .asc

# 3. first case-insensitive *substring* match (sorted alphabetically)
