This arc (016) file contains a short C (manx) program in source and exe
form that takes a CLI command:
1> test myfont.font
and hacks the system font list to where myfont.font replaces the 80
column topaz.font (until you reboot). On the next window creation within a
program, any window that would ordinarily use the default system topaz
font, will use myfont.font instead. This is useful for changing the font
used by programs for which you don't have the sources, such as a text
processor or the Amiga Cli and workbench (if run before loadwb). Included
is a couple of fonts that I have been playing around with. One in
particular is a sans serif font I like for programming since it makes ()
and [] very bold. By the way, the fonteditor with the 1.2 developers kit
is fantastic. I hope its there for those without a developer connection.
The code to insert myfont.font is very quick/dirty so if you plan to use
it for other than test purposes, it would be wise to enhance it a bit. I
would like to see a PREFERENCES option for setting the default font; if
you agree then please write to C. A. and ask for this in 1.3.
