	A long (like 1988) time ago, someone pointed me to a place
to get extra fonts for Turbo C (V2.x).  I've moved several times
since then and I now re-need that information.  Specifically I'm
looking for symbol/Greek fonts  which don't come with the standard
package.

	Additionally same person was able to point me to two things:

	1) the "format" of a Turbo C font file [ostensibly so that
I can convert Hershey font files to Turbo C files], and

	2) something called FE which is a font editor, for do it yourself
stuff.  Finding this would be great as there are several things I need to add
(specialized symbols, etc.).  But... as I recall FE required a mouse and
EGA/VGA graphics, neither of whic I have at the present time (I will
soon, I think)  --- if there is a similar package for Herc/no_mouse
I'd be happy to hear of it.

	Please direct follow-ups to my e-mail address (at least), as my net
connection is shaky these days, and I may miss something if posted here.
