Dear netters. I know that vtxx terminals can load external fonts. But i don't know HOW * Do they load them via the serial port (from the host ) ?. * Do they load them from a cartridge ?. * Is it possible to design your own font for the terminal ?. * And lastly, do you know the maximum number of characters that can be loaded ? (i've heard that the VT320 can accept 92 characters, seems too few for me, any idea ?). Thanks for your answer. Please send answer by email since i need it quickly and the usenet delay is 5 days from the US to France. I'll post a summary if there are people interested. Thanks.
