- You may request dfe104.zip from my mailserv@batpad.lgb.ca.us.
-
- get dfe104.zip uuencode
-
- ...is the command.
-
- Load your font with the 12K TSR dfkeep.exe included in the shareware
- package, and it will take effect globally inside DV. The neat thing
- about it, though, is when you change video modes, dfkeep saves and
- restores the font in all windows. You can even change the global font
- from inside the BigDOS window without exiting DV, once dfkeep is
- loaded. It also loads UltraVision fonts, and can edit them.
-
- Oh, UltraVision is a commercial program that also does what you want.
