echo -e doesn't work
btw there's also python's native pyfiglet https://github.com/pwaller/pyfiglet

CS50P WEEK 4 FRANK, IAN AND GLENS LETTERS PSET.
Sorry, just noticed you said you went to github. The way I found it was by going to the intro page (I don't really consider what's you're quoting to be docs), then going to github and then explored that. You yourself slightly missed it on github, it is in the the __init__.py file: https://github.com/pwaller/pyfiglet/blob/master/pyfiglet/__init__.py . There's also another docs file in that project but that is mostly for developers that are working on library itself, not users.

Making a command-line rpg in python (Day 1)
While researching on how I could make my "welcoming" message look a bit more fancy and unique, I stumbled across the pyfiglet library! It allows for a great way of adding amazing text to your command-line interface:

Comparing Strings (Street Names) With Machine Learning
When comparing strings (in our case street names), there are plenty of off-the-shelf features that can be used, such as those provided by the jellyfish. This package also provides a number of phonetic encodings. We can combine an encoding with a metric, such as Levenshtein Distance, to measure the phonetic similarity between two street names.

How to match names which differ slightly?
You can use a library like jellyfish which implements a bunch of string comparison algorithms, you'd just have to experiment and see which one gives the best results for you. I think I've had the best luck with Jaro-Winkler, then looking at the % match result and picking a cutoff above which I have good confidence that the match is real. It's still not perfect, and I really don't see how your last example would work with just about any automated comparison.
What are some alternatives?
