Re: FONTITAL=

I'm not that partial to Green for the "Ruler" Line, but apart from that, I like it. 
(Is there a mid-grey color available ?)

I fiddled and fiddled until I finally got exactly what I want. I don't
know what I had set wrong, but I had a lot of trouble with the
interaction among the different FONT statements (at least I think that
was the cause). What I successfully finished with is quite
exceptional:

Hi Harry,


I tried the exact same FONTxxxx settings as yours for these directives,
and all of them did show up on my computer. Do you have a screenshot for
this?

FONTBOLD and FONTBOI aren't showing up here. I have the .exe dated

7/31/2016 5:37pm.


I have:

FONT=fonts\CONSOLA

FONTITAL=fonts\COURI

FONTBOLD=fonts\Nouveau_IBM

FONTBOIT=fonts\Nouveau_IBM


COURI shows up and works well enough to de-emphasize comments, but

Nouveau_IBM isn't showing.


The fonts seem to load (at least, I get no error message as I do when
they

can't load), but the COLOR table, which lists every mode doesn't show
them.


I then tried:

FONT=fonts\CONSOLA

FONTITAL=fonts\COURI

FONTBOLD=fonts\CONSOLAB

FONTBOIT=fonts\CONSOLAZ


and the bold and bold italics still dont' show up.


Regards,


Harry
