I've found a couple of LetterGothic TT fonts that are fixed width but
that still hasn't solved my problem - one of them Windoze won't
recognise altho its a .ttf file - maybe its a mac font ?; and the
other works fine in Word but Multi-Edit and Lister won't let me 
select it as a font - perhaps they don't think its fixed width?

all the best for '96,
