I am writing a program, one aspect of which is the generation of 
figlets.  I would like it to be fully compatable with existing figlet 
fonts so am trying to get the formating the same.  However, I have been 
having trouble making sence of the 'SmushMode' variable for fonts.

I have about a dozen fonts with smushmodes ranging from -1 to about 40, 
but I can't seem to figure out an algorithm that can turn this number 
into a decent smush for all fonts.  Can some ascii Wizard out there 
please explain it to me?   email is fine.
