   For those times when I'm tired, I use screen fonts (
   (OS/2 full screen) for dos created by :
FONTEDSM.ZIP 174,751 .a.. 5-15-94 5:35:04 pm
   on SimTel, with my current favourite,
   BOLD0.com. The *.fnt files can be saved
   as COM files and then called from XYdos
   to make a fat screen font. Very nice.
   Fonts can be modified by the pixel.
   The program has some odd fonts but they
   don't have print equivalents. Still when
   one is tired of the DOS Fonts set by hardware
   in DOS, these options are useful. And they
   are faster than the Graphic mode of XY4 since
   they are DOS substitutions, not graphics.
