- there are several commercial programs available for the mac, and for the
- IBM, I assume. Fontmonger is the one I have heard the most about, but
- there seem to be several others with similar titles. BTW- there are
- some fonts which in my mind do tend to look like the IBM screen font,
- available in truetype. Unfortunately, they are only available through
- the UPA, because I haven't figured out what I'm doing wrong trying to
- upload them to IBM ftp sites (I am running on a mac).
