A simple to use (but extensible) FIGlet generator library for .NET framework.
Available as a package.

If you want to know about FIGlet, you can visit the official web site at http://www.figlet.org.
The library supports:

• Loading fonts from text or zip files
• Full size, fitting or smushing as layout modes
• Working canvas items are extensible to hold your own metadata (such as color)
• Has two integrated fonts ('big' and 'small'), for very lazy people.

The smallest sample:

var text = FIGdriver.DefaultFont.Render("Hello, world");

With a little more details, another example:

// loads a font...
var font = FIGfont.FromEmbeddedResource("small.flf", typeof(FontsRoot));
// ... or use a default font
var font2 = FIGdriver.DefaultFont;
// creates the FIGdriver, which renders the text
var figDriver = new FIGdriver { Font = font /* or font2 */ };
// add some text
figDriver.Write("Hi there!");
figDriver.Write("Great, isn't it?");
// and get the text
var text = figDriver.ToString();

Ask or even better, contribute.
