ascii art program

I recall a program I had a while back, for windows, where you would type
in some text, and then it would spit it back in ascii format, you could
adjust the type of look of the text etc. Anyone know what this program
is and where I can download it?

I've never seen the program for windows, but if it's what I think it
is.. i.e. a figlet font creator, there are a couple available upon the
web. Where you can type in some text, change the style and font and it
will create you some nice looking ascii text.

Just do a search for "figlet fonts" or something like that

First, I apologise if this is off-topic!

I've written a small program which can be used to convert Windows bitmap
files into ascii art text files. Despite what the FAQ for this ng said, I
couldn't find much about programs that already do this.

If you'd like to download it, pop along to www.asbury.demon.co.uk

As you'd expect from a automated program, the results are not always
brilliant and usually (particularly for small images) don't really compare
to hand drawn art, especially some that I've seen here :O) Nevertheless,
it's good if you need an ascii image of something and don't have the
time/energy to actually draw it.

The program has numerous options for varying width, height etc. of the
images, and can even be used to compile a number of bitmaps into an
animation using JavaScript and HTML.

Constructive comments would be much appreciated :O) (Flames wouldn't) I
apologise again if this is not really relevant here.
