ASCII Decorator is a simple plugin implementation of pyfiglet for Sublime Text 3.  pyfiglet is a full port of FIGlet into pure python.  FIGlet is a program that generates text banners, in a variety of typefaces, composed of letters made up of conglomerations of smaller ASCII characters.

Or simply:

    __________________     __         __                   __  __    _
   / ____/  _/ ____/ /__  / /_   ____/ /___  ___  _____   / /_/ /_  (_)____
  / /_   / // / __/ / _ \/ __/  / __  / __ \/ _ \/ ___/  / __/ __ \/ / ___/
 / __/ _/ // /_/ / /  __/ /_   / /_/ / /_/ /  __(__  )  / /_/ / / / (__  ) _ _
/_/   /___/\____/_/\___/\__/   \__,_/\____/\___/____/   \__/_/ /_/_/____(_|_|_)
