Hello all,

   I need to design a font for 24-pin matrix printer (the NEC P6, but I think
the fonts are the same on any generic Epson-compatible 24 pin printer).

   I have a PD font editor, but am nowhere near satisfied with the program.
I would have sent in the shareware fee for the sources, but the program was
written in Basic which I hate.

   Does anyone know of a good font editor for 24-pin printers in the public
domain, that takes into account such things as the "No-needle-may-fire-twice"
problem etc., or source to a font editor that could be adapted without too much
work?

   All sources in a serious language, such as C, Pascal, or APL, will be con-
sidered.  If I adapt and/or modify the program, the result will be placed in
the PD as well.

   Thanks for any and all info.

PS: As a last resort, I'll take a PC program as well!  :-)
