Thin

A FIGlet banner design, 6 rows tall , by Wendell Hicken. Specimen rendered.

The specimen is rendered from the held file itself by the same FIGlet parser the generator runs: the name line, then the characters the font actually covers.

Coverage

Complete: A-Z, a-z and 0-9 all carry ink.

Provenance

What the font's own header comments say, kept as written. Authorship and dates on this page come from this text and nowhere else.

Based on a lowercase font posted by robert@cs.caltech.edu
Figletized by Wendell Hicken 11/93 (whicken@parasoft.com)
Explanation of first line:
flf2 - "magic number" for file identification
a    - should always be `a', for now
$    - the "hardblank" -- prints as a blank, but can't be smushed
6    - height of a character
5    - height of a character, not including descenders
8    - max line length (excluding comment lines) + a fudge factor
-1   - default smushmode for this font (like "-m 15" on command line)
12   - number of comment lines

Where it stands

This design is not one of the generator's shipped styles. It is cataloged here as a reference specimen, rendered from the held file.

font.lol showcases this font for reference and does not distribute the file. FIGlet font files are not downloadable from font.lol.
