I am working with a user-interface generator (Graphics-Menu BGI
version) that requires either BGI's standard 8x8 bit-mapped font or a
fixed-width stroked font for correct cursor positioning during
text-editing.  I suspect that other GUI's may have this 'feature' :-(.
The problem is that in VGA 640 X 480 resolution the bit-mapped
characters are just too small and none of the standard BGI stroked
fonts are fixed-width.

I downloaded Borland's Stroked Font Editor and additional stroked fonts
from the archives. The question is how to specify an alternate font
(e.g., using the settextstyle routine). In an attempt to use the
EURO.CHR font I renamed EURO.CHR to TRIP.CHR and specified TRIPLEX_FONT
to settextstyle.  This caused the standard bit-mapped font to be used.
I suspect that this is due to TRIP.CHR now containing a signature that
doesn't match the basename of the file. In any event, if the extended
fonts are all proportionally spaced they won't be of much use to me.

The best solution, if workable, would be to use an alternate BIT-MAPPED
font. Anyone know of a way to do this?

Thanks,
