I downloaded a file called "newfont" from the houston server today, and after
unpacking and the like, I ran the program, saw a page full of dutch (?) but
in the end, had the characters displayed by all of the programs (windows etc.)
looking like the Mac font.  *Very Nice*.

I know very little about the mechanisms involved here, so maybe some kind soul
out there can help.

	How does one replace the system font?

	How does one generate the font that replaces the system font?

	Can the Font editor that came with Degas Elite be of any value here?

	Finally, I've had the ST for just over a year now, and I 
seem to recall that GDOS was soon to be released - Soon has long passed. 
Is this still a possibility, and if so, will that help with all of this
font business?

	Any help would be appreciated.  (Atari?)
