toilet: Generate ASCII art using a custom font file.
$ toilet ${input_text} -f ${font_filename}
try on your machine

The command toilet is used to create an ASCII art representation of a given text. It formats and stylizes the given text using various font styles and manipulations.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • ${input_text}: This represents the input text that will be transformed into ASCII art. You need to provide the desired text within the command. For example, if you want to create ASCII art for the word "Hello", you would replace ${input_text} with "Hello".

  • -f ${font_filename}: This flag (-f) is used to specify the font to be used for creating ASCII art. ${font_filename} represents the filename of the font you want to use. You need to replace ${font_filename} with the actual filename of the font file you have. The font file contains the necessary characters and patterns to generate the ASCII art.

By executing the command with the provided input text and font filename, the toilet tool will generate an ASCII art representation of the text using the specified font.
