使用给定符号在C＃控制台上绘制垂直线的简单方法

Question

Is there any easy way or APIS to draw the boxes or line in C# on console from symbols - /,| and _ or -. For example I want to draw something like this :

     ^
     |
     |
     |
     |___________>
    /
   /
  /

I can draw two lines but not third one with "/" to look like above figure.I need an arrow as well at the end but it is I think nearly impossible.

Below is my dirty code :

    Console.WriteLine("\t\t^Z");
    Console.WriteLine("\t\t|");
    Console.WriteLine("\t\t|");
    Console.WriteLine("\t\t|");
    Console.WriteLine("\t\t|");
    Console.WriteLine("\t\t|");

    Console.WriteLine("\t\t         X");
    Console.WriteLine("\t\t -------->");
    Console.WriteLine("\t       /");
    Console.WriteLine("\t      /");
    Console.WriteLine("\t     /");
    Console.WriteLine("\t    /");
    Console.WriteLine("\t   /");

I'm not sure if its any prettier but you could use PadLeft and make a method to do it

IDEOne Example

public static void MakeAxis(int lineLengths)
{
    for(int i = 0; i < lineLengths - 1; i++)
        Console.WriteLine("|".PadLeft(lineLengths, ' '));
    Console.WriteLine("|".PadLeft(lineLengths, ' ') + new String('_', lineLengths<<1));
    for(int i = lineLengths; i > 0; i--)
        Console.WriteLine("/".PadLeft(i, ' '));
}

Example output
