     I want to put text into my SVGA programs that I'm writing with
     DJGPP, and I'd like to have fonts with 2 or 3 colors per letter
     that hopefully look better than the BIOS fonts.

     I'd like to be able specify:
     -bold
     -italics
     -underline
     -outline color
     -interior color
     -background color (also, clear background capability)

     Does anyone have any code that you would like to post, or somewhere
     that I could find source code, font files, etc to add some nifty
     text to my programs ?? (I already have code for drawing the BIOS
     fonts in one color, so don't post that. )

     Thanks for all help, if you want a copy of this when I finish it (if
     I can get some code!) send me mail, and I'll be glad to give it to you.
