- SETFONT lets you change the font used in a particular Shell window,
- overriding the System Default Text setting specified in the Font editor.
- SETFONT is only effective in the window in which it is invoked.
-
- You must specify both a font name and a size when using the SETFONT command.
- The other options are:
-
- SCALE
-
- Enables bitmap font scaling.
-
- PROP
-
- Allows proportional fonts.
-
- ITALIC
-
- The font is italic.
-
- BOLD
-
- The font is boldface.
-
- UNDERLINE
-
- The font is underlined.
-
- Invoking SETFONT clears the Shell window of its current contents and displays
- a new prompt, in the new font, at the top of the window. Using proportional
- fonts in a Shell window is not recommended because the variable character
- spacing prevents columns of information from lining up and makes editing the
- command line difficult.
-
- Example:
-
- 1> SETFONT topaz 11 BOLD UNDERLINE
-
- The Shell window clears and the new prompt is in 11 point Topaz, underlined
- and boldface.
