Re: Font display in Xy3 or NB3

[Kari Eveli lexitec@xxxxxxxx]

Hello John,

NB3 is not the same as Xy3 but almost! Here is what I get with default
COLORS and these fonts:


FONT = \fonts\CONSOLA
BOLDFONT = \fonts\CONSOLAB
ITALFONT = \fonts\CONSOLAI
BOITFONT = \fonts\CONSOLAZ

Best regards,

On further investigation, I find some mode values will recognize and
implement the ITALFONT = command and other values cause the system to
revert to the default font.  The same is probably true of bold -- I
just haven't succeeded in finding the right value to effect the font
change.


Results are too unpredictable here to conclude much of anything here.
 So please disregard.

This may be unique to xy3, but BOLDFONT = doesn't appear to work. The
font displayed remains the one specified in the initial FONT = command.


And the FONTITAL = command changes not only the italics font, but the
underscore display font as well.


No sleep lost, because in Xy3 you can't get "normal" font display with
atypical color combinations anyway -- bold, underscore and italics
typically have altered colors and surrounding color blocks in my black
on off-off white color scheme. But for the record....


In any case, thanks to Wengier for these many refinements....
