Plain-text Awesomizer. Uses figlet-js forked from scottgonzalez/figlet-js

Great for making fancy banners:

asciify: {
  myBanner: {
    text: 'Text to asciify'
  }
},
uglify:{
  options: {
    banner: '/*!\n <%= asciify_myBanner %> \n*/\n'
  },
  all:{
    src:'Gruntfile.js',
    dest:'Grunfile.withbanner.min.js'        
  }
}

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.0

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-asciify --save-dev

One the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-asciify');

In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
