ASCII art for semantic code commenting
I love this and I'm going to use it for fancy comments in code and in the browser console. It'd be really cool if you could integrate something like http://www.figlet.org/ for inserting ASCII text art.
I wish I had known about this tool when I building this little browser game https://replit.com/@aMoniker/Gush because all the levels & game objects are generated from multiline strings of ascii symbols, and it just took too long to do manually.

Building a TypeScript CLI with Node.js and Commander
Commander.js provides a lot of features that allow you to succinctly build command-line interfaces. Furthermore, the Node.js community provides libraries such as Chalk and Figlet that complement Commander.js CLIs to make them look visually appealing.

figlet – a program for making large letters out of ordinary text
I have a popular web based ascii text generator (patorjk.com/software/taag), it uses FIGlet driver that I wrote (https://github.com/patorjk/figlet.js/). Many of the other ones out there also use their own drivers (I've seen some written in php and python). There are also different types of ASCII text fonts out there other than FIGlet (ex: my app compiles fonts that were made in the AOL days in the Arial font - which is interesting because it's a non-monospaced font).
FIGlet is the most popular spec for these types of fonts though (it's an app and a spec). The mailing list hasn't been active in a decade, but people used to submit fonts there. It was cool to see what people made.
