[GreenKeys] program to make large letters from ascii, or ascii art

Hi Jim:

Wow, I had no idea so many folks had done this banner stuff.  I found one I 
liked, and an art file of a howling wolf too.  Had to stay away from 
anything with ascii chars that don't convert well to baudot.  Here it is 
(you need to view it in monospace font):
