Subject: 24.4; Artist Mode on Windows using figlet requires /bin/sh
Date: Sun, 22 Mar 2015 17:32:21 +0100

Hello,

i tried to use Artist Mode on my windows machine, but when i want
to add text i get the following error message:
artist-system: Searching for program: no such file or directory, /bin/sh

Wasamasa on the irc-channel of emacs was so kind and told me that this
issue seems to be because of figlet and he recommended me to add this as
a bug report.

Thanks,

Michael

More information was requested, but no response was given within a few
months, so I'm closing this bug report.  If the problem still exists,
please reopen this bug report.

	Could you please try the following on W32 (W64)?

(progn (require 'artist)
       (artist-figlet-get-font-list))

	Or something like:

C-x b *x* RET
M-x artist-mode RET
M-x artist-select-op-text-overwrite RET
RET Test. RET RET RET
