I read the following on the asciiart newsgroup. However I do not have the system or ability to FTP through my server. A friend of mine was able to download the two compressed files of "figlet" amd the fonts, but unable to uncompress the files or locate the decompression files. Can you help us get the decompression file? ............... wbarney@heartland.bradley.edu ......................................................................
