- # -- It is possible to install new GDOS fonts for Timeworks. Timeworks
- # -- should show them in the font selection if they are installed auto-
- # -- matically.

- You're right about fontwid.app. Note that you also need to list all of the
- new fonts in the assign.sys files in ASCENDING order of their identity
- numbers,
- and that all ID numbers must be under 128. You can change the ID # with
- most font editing packs (e.g. the ST Club's Fontkit). There's a doc on
- atari.archive giving lots of info on the mysterious assign.sys file and GDOS,
- I think.
