[ Several tries to reply by E-mail failed, so here goes...]

On Simtel20 and wuarchive.wustl.edu under pd1:<msdos.borland> there are 2
files: BGIDRIV.ARC and BGIFONT.ARC.  The first one contains the description
of BGI file format.  The second one contains a font file (CHR) editor and (I
believe) the description of the CHR file format.

Hope this helps,
Anto.
