Summary : A faithful recreation of the original DOS font
Description :
BlockZone is a faithful, pixel-perfect recreation of the original IBM VGA font.
It contains each of the 256 characters, including those in the 128-255 range,
referred to as extended ASCII.
BlockZone is capabable of rendering ANSI and ASCII art, in fact that is the
purpose it was created for. It supports a wide range of codepages, the legendary
codepage 437 (MS-DOS Latin US) as well as Baltic, Cyrillic, French Canadian,
Greek, Hebrew, Icelandic, Latin-1, Latin-2, Nordic, Portuguese, Turkish charsets,
Windows codepage 1252 and even more.
All characters are mapped to their Unicode equivalents. You get the best results
when anti-aliasing (font smoothing) is disabled.
