I just copied a FONT LOADER accessory from CLUBII BBS. Problem is
that it doesn't do anything. Anyone have this? I have the fonts,
but no luck. They claim it uses DEGAS fonts. BUT, but, but...the fonts
they give as degas fonts load into degas all wrong. I checked them
with the DEGAS_FONT_EDITOR. And what I got is that in every little
rectangle that you are supposed to fit ONE letter, they crunched TWO
in. So, if I try using it with degas, everytime I press a key, two
letters get printed, one on top of each other. What to do? I checked
several other BBS across the nation, and all that carry DEGAS fonts,
have the fonts with the same problem. So, there must be something I
am doing wrong. Not everybody in the nation would have damaged fonts
up there. HELP!
