Henry Segerman asked the same question recently. A complete Figlet Font has all of the following characters in that exact order = 102 total. Many font designers seem to do Capitals and Numerals and then give up on the remainder. At present your ejm2line has Groups 3, 5 and some items from Groups 2, 4 and 6 = 46 characters in total. -------------------------------------------------------------------- From the Figlet Manual... " The Font Data The font data begins on the next line after the comments and continues to the end of the file. The characters from ` ' to `~' are given in standard ASCII order, followed by the extra German characters: umlauted `A', `O', `U', `a', `o' and `u' and s-z. " Group 1 is $$ for SP (space character) i.e. 8 rows of spaces 1 column wide. Group 2 !
