In M-x figlet-message, if you don't enter a font name but just press Ret
it inserts an error message into the buffer
figlet: : Unable to open font file
I think the figlet program doesn't like -f "" empty font name. Perhaps
figlet.el would omit the -f in that case to take the program default per
below.
