There's also a Web server to do it for you at 
http://www.inf-utfsm.cl/cgi-bin/figlet -- saves a lot of trouble unless you 
are going to do this on a regular basis.

   I have three links to Figlet servers on my SITES page in a special 
'spotlight' section.  I have fixed the Purdue link.  For some reason the 
port number was incorrect.  It works now.

   Yes, the Figlet servers are great.  The reason you would want to set 
up Figlet on your own system is if you felt you wanted to gather every 
last font.

   The first Figlet server on the list has the most fonts, the second and 
third have less fonts.  These servers are great for most needs.  While I 
have Figlet and most all known fonts here for my use, I find I use the 
servers in most instances, they are just quicker to access and easier to use.

Yes, it's called FIGLET, I have it and a bunch of figlet fonts, if anyone
wants me to post it here I will.

BTW:  It's the DOS version
