BUAF

( //, n.)

   [abbreviation, from alt.fan.warlord] Big Ugly ASCII Font -- a special
   form  of  {ASCII  art}.  Various  programs  exist  for rendering text
   strings  into  block, bloob, and pseudo-script fonts in cells between
   four  and  six  character  cells  on a side; this is smaller than the
   letters  generated  by  older  {banner} (sense 2) programs. These are
   sometimes  used  to  render  one's  name  in  a  {sig block}, and are
   critically referred to as BUAFs. See {warlording}.
