[TALK] Proportional fonts ARE NOW POSSIBLE!

ANYFONT is a 16-bit Windows program which I just finished writing.
It will adjust any ASCII art to be viewable in proportional fonts. It
does this by inserting spaces "intelligently" into the images based on
how wide each character is. It works GREAT! You can even "fine tune"
its performance so the results are not too wide.
By the way, I am the guy who posted the notice earlier about FigWin.
(A clone of FIGlet, for Windows.) I wrote FigWin and it will be released
next month.
You can download ANYFONT now from the FigWin page...

Tell me what you think if you download it. Ok folks?
I am STILL ignorant about using newsgroups, so please reply to my Email
