Answer: Where to get Figlet, etc.

I've had a number of queries about FIGlet from people referring to
Ascii-art lately, so I figured it's time to post this again:
======================================================================
The "official" ftp site for Figlet is:
	ftp.nicoh.com:pub/figlet

The Figlet WWW page
        http://www.math.uiuc.edu:80/~chappell/figlet/
lists some other sites.

There is also FIGLET-L, a mailing list for both updates and discussions
about figlet. If you want to be notified of updates to the Figlet
software, email
	LIS...@vmd.cso.uiuc.edu
with the body of the email saying
	subscribe figlet-l your full name
	set figlet-l topics=SOFTWARE
where "your full name" should be your full name.

If you want to know about new fonts as well, then it should say
	subscribe figlet-l your full name
	set figlet-l topics=SOFTWARE,FONTS

If you want to be in on everything, including discussions, then just
	subscribe figlet-l your full name
will do the trick.

Remember not to post any discussions under SOFTWARE or FONTS. In fact,
you should never post under SOFTWARE -- it is for "official" releases.
You can post any new nifty software you write for figlet on the normal
discussion, and if I decide to put it in the "official" distribution,
I'll post a notice to SOFTWARE and make it available for ftp.

There is also a Figlet mail server, run by
Mic...@ustc.vlsi.com. Send him email with the subject
	Figlet: Help
for more information.
