FIGlet for Go

Currently in Development.
Sould work but will be improved (add demos, better font adding, maybe better performance, more default fonts)

A port of figlet to golang and fork of getwe/figlet4go.

Installation

go get -u github.com/probandula/figlet4go

Usage

// Create the renderer
ascii := figlet4go.NewAsciiRender()

// Optional: Add color to the letters (https://github.com/fatih/color needed)

// Render and print the string
renderStr, _ := ascii.Render("Hello World")
fmt.Print(renderStr)

Default font

The default font is built into the bindata.go file with the tool go-bindata.
The bash script for building the default font is stored in tools/ (go-bindata must be installed).

Use the demo

There are demo programs for trying out the library.
To run them, cd into the demo/ directory and run go run [filename] on any program you want to run.
