SGA console font
If anyone likes, s/he can try the SGA font for the Linux console!
(The Cult and fanatism never end *grin*)
linux01.org:2222/h2/f/H2-sga.tgz
<EDIT: currently dead, my fault, hoping to get it back soon>
More instructions contained in the TXT file in the TGZ file.

Re: SGA console font
Lets see if I can crank up the CPI specs (DOS).
Though a DOS font will only work in fullscreen mode.

Re: SGA console font
I used a program called "Font Editor" (I downloaded it from Simtel).
And even if it isn't weekend yet, here's the file:

Re: SGA console font
Hey! :P
It looks like you have cheated me!
I just looked at the ZIP directory and it contained ... uh
SGA.COM with a size of less than 5000 bytes.
Now, if you sum things up, I can tell that YOU simply
have put the raw bits (like FNT file does) into a COM
file. Well I would not have thought of that, but to make
up a CPI file (guess what ega.cpi in your DOS folder is for...)
But there wasnot any editor for CPI yet, despite
if there would be any in future... (-> FreeDOS).
Now, tell me, did you just take my FNT file and convert it to COM? ;-)
Not to forget there is a TTF font out on 3drealms.

Re: SGA console font
No, I didn't use your font, I used the program you can download from my previous post and made a new SGA font pixel by pixel.
