######### Twiglets
######### ========
 ## 
 ## It's a bit like Figlets, but uses ordinary
 ## Amiga fonts, pixilates them into ascii and
 ## prints them vertically downwards, like the
 ## example on the left, which is the 10pt
 ## "Ultraline" font.
 ## 
 I was trying out some code for another
## ## ## project, and accidentally wrote this.
## ## ##
## ## ## Usage
## ## ## =====
## ## ##
## ## Template:
## ## FONT/A,SIZE/A,PIXCHAR/K,NOCHAR/K,TEXT/F/A
#########
######### FONT = font name, with the ".font" extension
 
 ## SIZE = point size of the font
 ## 
 ## PIXCHAR = the character to use to plot a
 ## pixel in ascii (default = *)
 ## 
 ## NOCHAR = the character to use to plot a
 ## "non-pixel" in ascii (default space)
#########
######### TEXT = the text to render
 
######### Examples
######### ========
## 
## ## twiglets topaz.font 8 Chris
## ##
## ## writes "Chris" in 8 character high Topaz text.
## ## 
#########
######### twiglets helvetica.font 20 PIXCHAR=":" Hello
 
## writes "Hello" in 20 character high Helvetica,
## using colons on a plain background.
## 
## Tips
## ====
## 
## Although Twiglets will happily use any font
######### supported by the font libraries on your system,
######### due to the nature of the program it is
 better to use bitmapped fonts.
#########
######### Future
 ======
 
######### There are unlikely to be any further releases,
######### however if you find any bugs - especially in
 regards to non-ASCII characters in other
######### character sets - please let me know. If you
######### would like the source code, ask me and maybe
 you will get it.
