~~~~~~~~~~~ How does it work ? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To receive a text written with FIGLET, just send me a mail (my address is
Mic...@vlsi.com) with the following subject line :
Subject: Figlet: Font --> To get a list of available fonts
Subject: Figlet: Catalog --> To get an example of each available font
Subject: Figlet: Help --> To receive this file
Subject: Figlet: Text --> To get a text written with FIGLET
In this last case, your should include in the body of your mail the following
fields :
Text: [Your text]
Font: [The font you have chosen]
Width: [maximum width of your screen]
Font and Width are optionals.
BE CAREFUL WITH THE SYNTAX, it is an automated process !!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Anyway, you can download the original Figlet program from :
ftp.wwa.com -> pub/Scarecrow/Figlet
ftp.nicoh.com -> pub/figlet ---- Official Figlet site !!!
