ASCII art (Unformatted)

Plain text unformatted ASCII banners.

ASCII art (Formatted)

ASCII banners formatted with ANSI escape characters.

Usable anywhere that supports ASCII with ANSI escape characters. Ex for ricing :

• /etc/issue file (defines what message is displayed before the tty login prompt)
• /etc/issue.net

To preview the formatted banners in your terminal, you can't just use cat on the file because of the escape characters. Instead run this command :

printf "%b" "$(cat path-to-file)" 

Or you can use this script :

1. Download (this script)[https://github.com/Phantomwise/ascii/blob/main/preview-formatted-ascii.sh]
2. Make it executable

chmod +x preview-formatted-ascii.sh

3. Run it with the path to the file as an argument
   For example, to preview the file with the Arch Linux banner, download the script and the file containing the banner, then run :

bash preview-formatted-ascii.sh arch-tubes-banner-1-formatted

Figlet fonts

Fonts for figlet.

You can see what they look like here : https://github.com/Phantomwise/ascii/blob/main/figfonts/figfonts-preview.md Though keep in mind that they'll look better in a terminal than in a code block because you won't see the gaps between the lines.

Figlet is a CLI tool for making ASCII banners. More info here :
https://github.com/cmatsuoka/figlet

How to use :

1. Install figlet.
2. Download the font file.
3. Put it in /usr/share/figlet/fonts.
4. Run figlet "Your text" -f Font_Name
   • For the text, make sure to escape special characters like '!' with a backslash.
   • For the font, you don't need to add the extension if the file is in /usr/share/figlet/fonts. If the file name has spaces, either rename it to remove the spaces remove them.
   • You can use a font that is not located in /usr/share/figlet/fonts if you specify the full path to a font file instead of just a font name.

To show all installed figlet fonts :

showfigfonts

Other really cool figlet fonts : https://github.com/xero/figlet-fonts (Look for the 'example' file linked in the readme to preview all of them at once)
