That is news to me... I thought 14 is the EGA or HGC size, and VGA uses 16 by default.
and it is ok on cheaper 800x600 and even 1024 displays. Do you suggest an extra size? 16, 20, 24, 28 and 32 are available, I just think that you want to prevent doesemu to get bloated :)
The point is more that if 16 is also fine then there is no reason for the 8x14 font and you could just use univga.

Good point.
I will, looks very interesting :) but... how will Dosemu work with that? there must be a translation table somewhere
There is, in src/plugin/translate/charsets/cp850.c using the $_internal_char_set setting. Bart - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
