Create Cool ASCII Text Banners from the Linux Terminal

“Create Cool ASCII Text Banners from the Linux Terminal: We have
watched Star Wars ASCII animation from the Linux Terminal before.
But do you know that from there you can also create cool text
graphics or banners that are made up of ASCII characters, which you
can use as email signature or simply show off to friends? Yes you
can, and the easiest way to do this would be to install FIGlet.

“As described from its project website, FIGlet is a program for
making large letters out of ordinary text. It is usually included
as part of many Unix-like operating system distributions such as
Linux and BSD, but it has been ported to other platforms as
well.

“Before you can start using FIGlet in Linux, you have to check
if it’s already installed on your distro. If not then just download
and install FIGlet using the package manager of your Linux
distribution.”
