FAQ
Does it support CJK characters?
ASCII art assembles glyphs from Latin letters and digits, so CJK usually will not render correctly — use letters, numbers, or symbols.
Why must it be shown in a monospace font?
The art relies on every character being equal width to form the shape; in proportional fonts it misaligns, so use a terminal or code block.
Can I switch fonts?
Yes. Several FIGlet-style fonts are built in, changing the stroke weight and height of the letters.
What about very long text?
Long text exceeds typical terminal width and wraps into a mess; keep it short — a few words works best.
Can the banner go straight into code?
Yes, drop it in a multi-line comment; just watch for characters like backslash that may need escaping in some languages.
