:    Go to ftp.wwa.com and look in /pub/Scarecrow/Figlet/Fonts

:    I just added the new 'bell' font, inspired by Joshua Bell, and the 4 
: font series call 'isometric' 1 through 4.

:    I think there are over 90 fonts right now.

why is it when i d/l "figlet-unix.tar.Z",
i end up getting a file in my directory called "figlet-unix.ta" ???

i hope someone can help me with this.

BTW. is there another site with the figlet program
     without all the fonts compressed together?


     i know the /pub/Scarecrow/Font directory also has this
     program, but i d/l it (yes with binary) and it doesn't work!


     Thanks in advance!
