# This gem takes a string and outputs ASCII art, generated by the
# FIGLET library. While it defaults to the 'big' font, an optional
# flag can be passed (-f or --font) with a string following it
# (e.g., slant) that will change the font that is used.
#
# The ruby Figlet implementation was written by Tim Fletcher
# (twoggle@gmail.com), and will only be curosrily maintained
# by the author of this rubygem (Michael Tierney,
# dev@panpainter.com).
