I don't want to use bitmaps, like the picture above, because they don't scale, they're relatively large downloads, and their text isn't searchable. Today I figured out how to draw the curly brackets using SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) to draw lines. A curly-bracket is two lines and four quarter circles.
Here's what it looks like in an HTML document. It won't render inside a blogspot blog, so you'll have to click there to see.
This is the code that renders the diagram.
