- FF (ONLY in 1.3) (DOES NOT exist in 2.x/3.x)
-
-
- SYNOPSIS
- FF - Speeds up the text display.
-
- FORMAT
- FF [-O] [-N] [fontname]
-
- EXPLANATION
- This only exists in 1.3 because 2.x/3.x have fast
- text routines that are inherit with those systems. If you
- are using a standard 8x8 or 10x9 font FF will speed up
- the display of the text on 1.3 machines.
-
- Not only that, but you can use FF to replace the
- format system font as long as it is of the proper size
- and is fixed width. 2.x/3.x uses the Font Prefrences in
- the Prefrences drawer to perform this same task.
-
-
- KEYWORDS
-
- -O
- This tells FF to speed up the text. It is on by
- default.
-
- -N
- This tells FF to turn off the fast text routines and
- can be turned back on by reissuing the command.
-
- [fontname]
- This tells FF to replace the system default fonts
- (TOPAZ80 and TOPAZ60). The font you use to replace it
- must have the NewFont.font file as well a drawer which is
- associated with that font file containing the data for 8
- or 9 size fonts, or both.
-
- If you designate a font that does not have those
- files available, the default Topaz fonts will be used.
