try 

cd /path_to_figlet

figlet -ffontname >my_text

Hit RETURN, type in what ever you like.

Do a CNTRL C to quit.

If you're running under Openwindoze, Motif, CDE, etc. you can just 

cd /path_to_figlet

figlet -ffontname

Hit RETURN, type what ever you like, then cut and paste into your mail
message or into a file you have open with the editor of choice.


Works for me under Solaris / CDE 1.0.2
