I've seen people using the terminal command: banner. This creates big ascii-art-style text.

When I try to run it, however, the terminal says it doesn't exist. Why?

How do I install it? Are there any alternatives?

You need to install it before you can use it.
Type in the terminal:

sudo apt-get install sysvbanner

This Package is not available in the standard installation and for this is why you have to install it manually.
