FIGlet is a program for making large letters out of ordinary text.

Easy to install

library(outsider)
module_install(repo = "dombennett/om..figlet")
# module_help(repo = "dombennett/om..figlet")

The module comes with all the base fonts plus all contributed fonts (~150).

Create text art in R!

library(outsider)
figlet <- module_import(fname = 'figlet', repo = 'dombennett/om..figlet')

# big font, centered font
figlet(arglist = c('-c', '-f', 'big', 'Figlet from R'))

# calgphy2 font, right-adjusted
figlet(arglist = c('-r', '-f', 'calgphy2', 'Figlet from R'))

# isometric2 font, with "kerning"
figlet(arglist = c('-k', '-f', 'isometric2', 'Figlet from R'))

# rev font plus multiple arguments
figlet(arglist = c('-lk', '-f', 'rev', 'Figlet from R'))
