Problems with installing the GUI for figlet

Problems with installing the GUI for figlet

Hope this isn't too OT for you lot..

..I've tried to get the dos GUI for figlet running with dos figlet, but it keeps
asking for a file, fig-gui.ini.  I'm nearly yelling at the PC, 'It's RIGHT
THERE!' <point>, because the file _is_ there, the gui just isn't seeing it, and
it's making me sad. :~(  boohoo.

Where would I find Large, Very large, and HUGE fonts for figlet?

Also - regarding the ASL for Love, the right hand with the 2nd and 3rd fingers
down, that was mentioned and displayed here.  In .au and I dare say in other
countries the same 'hand gesture' is used at rock and roll concerts, and AFAIK
is supposed to mean 'Satan' or 'YOUREALLYROCCCKKK!' or words to that effect. 
for example...

"!!!THAT'S IT, MAN!!! KEEP  THROWING THAT
HEAVY SHIT AT ME!!! THAT HEAVY SHIT!!!"
