Here's a font I cooked up this afternoon. Letters that might need

 _______
(_______)
 ______
(_____ \
 _____) )
(______/

As a more consistent 'S', but as you say, it's not quite right.

[Capitals only followed...]

I've got the complete ASCII set now.  Feel free to mail me if anyone 
wants it.  Also, could someone please send me a copy of figlet or 
something that will enable me to use this font?

Thanx!

Namarie
