I have a user who is TeXing a book containing programming examples in Pascal.
The examples are set in Courier with Courier-Bold for key words.  The problem
is that Courier is far too light, and we would like to darken it a bit.

My first thought is to create a darker Courier using afm2tfm with dvips,
but how to do this, and whether it can even be done is not clear to me.

I would, of course, welcome other solutions to the problem of creating
a darker Courier.

Thanks.
