Can I use the UNIX figlet's .flf font files with the DOS figlet, without 
any conversions or changes other than some filename.ext name changes?

I've never had any trouble.  However, note that Figlet version 2.1 has
slightly different files than version 2.0 -- that has nothing to do
with DOS or UNIX, just the version.  The chief difference is that in
2.1 you can specify more characters.  They're still pretty much
compatible though, I think.

(To find out what version of Figlet you're running, type "figlet -I1"
and divide the resulting number by 10000 (if you just get an error,
you're running version 2.0).)
