FIGlet is a program for making large letters out of ordinary text
-FIGlet prints its input using large characters (called FIGcharacters)
-made up of ordinary screen characters (called sub-characters).
-FIGlet output is generally reminiscent of the sort of signatures many
-people like to put at the end of e-mail and UseNet messages. It is also
-reminiscent of the output of some banner programs, although it is
-oriented normally, not sideways.
