Hey @mdtrooper thank you for highlighting this issue. So looking around it may be a case of where figlet doesn't come pre-installed or fully setup on Linux Mint 20. As I don't have direct access to Linux Mint at this time, would you mind providing the output if any for:
command -v figlet
Thank you!
Yes. I send the output:
$ command -v figlet
/usr/bin/figlet
And:
$ file /usr/bin/figlet
/usr/bin/figlet: symbolic link to /etc/alternatives/figlet
And follow the white rabbit:
$ file /etc/alternatives/figlet
/etc/alternatives/figlet: symbolic link to /usr/bin/figlet-toilet
$file /usr/bin/figlet-toilet
/usr/bin/figlet-toilet: symbolic link to toilet
$ whereis toilet
toilet: /usr/bin/toilet /usr/share/man/man1/toilet.1.gz
$ file /usr/bin/toilet
/usr/bin/toilet: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, BuildID[sha1]=5d5e14514e9c852fe85c57ec20ad263d256d2acf, stripped
Thank you so much for the provided information. Definitely a bit of a rabbit hole as far as how LinuxMint seems to handle figlet. Will look further in to seeing the best way to handle the call. Thank you for bringing this issue up!
@am401 No I'm not. It would be a wonderful addition.
