I played around a few times with this. First I tried 'styles' overlays by creating a pattern then I tried a striped gradient but neither gave a good, clear result.

I'm sure there's a dead easy way of getting that effect but I ended up by using a simple multi-selection and clear.
**Type needs to be 'rasterised' first and on its own layer.
Drop shadow added to see the effect

this would be a lot simpler in vector editors like Adobe Illustrator. use the font tool to write the letters FX; create outlines; make boxes as CP has done in the example above and 'divide objects below'; delete the parts you dont need; group the objects together.

for diagonal lines you would simply need to rotate the box before you slice the objects below with it.

look at this animation to get what i mean:
