Transform region into ASCII art

Here's a command that I've found laying around my config that you might find interesting:

(defun ora-figlet-region (&optional b e)
  (interactive "r")
  (shell-command-on-region b e "toilet" (current-buffer) t))

You can install the toilet shell utility from your package manager. Here's an example result:

    #"
   m"    mmm    m mm          mmm   mmmmm   mmm    mmm    mmm
   #    #" "#   #"  "        #"  #  # # #  "   #  #"  "  #   "
   #    #   #   #            #""""  # # #  m"""#  #       """m
    #   "#m#"   #            "#mm"  # # #  "mm"#  "#mm"  "mmm"
     "

If you don't mind the strange name, the output looks quite nice.
