But I imagine if you use a search >and retrieve program, you can get what you need. uudecode/uuencode is standard unix /usr/bin armoury, of course. ftp.isu.edu :: /pub/figlet/util/uue.tar.Z (19883) and uue.uue (29736 bytes) This, of course, is the offical figlet site, and this version apparently handles figlet fonts much better than most other uuen/decoders. Versions for dos are available lots of places, but try SimTel (or its mirrors): oak.oakland.edu :: /SimTel/msdos/decode/uuexe532.zip (and a few others in that directory, but this one is recommended). Don't know about the mac, but as Bob says, it's available.
