Named after the collaboration of Frank Sheeran, Ian Chai
and Glenn Chappell that produced the FIGlet application,
FIG is a set of three typefaces in the spirit
of early email and ASCII art explorations. Written in
1991 using the programming language C, the FIGlet application
allows users to create fonts with basic ASCII characters (see some examples of FIGlets).
The FIG types capture the simplicity of the FIGlets with
a family that includes a sans, serif and script.
