I wasn't aware there was a DOS version of this program. Where does one get a
copy?

In answer to your question, (never having seen the program itself) I would
guess that you save the final product as a text file and <M>erge, <I>mport or
<I>nsert it into your word processed document.

The MS-DOS version can be ftp'ed from Scarecrow's site. That's where I got 
my copy. To get the image into a word processor, use the following command
line:
	FIGLET -F "FONT" <"INPUTFILE" >"OUTPUTFILE"

    This is the oly way I found how to do this. You have to type what you
want to "figletize" into an inputfile first (not hard to do, use the 
"copy con:" command, if nothing else). It will save the image under the name 
"OUTPUTFILE" or whatever you use istead. Oh yeah, the quotes aren't needed, 
that's what I used to show you where to add your choice. Hope this helps.
