Note: LoadFont was originally called GNU CHCP, however to avoid
confusion between it and the command.com internal CHCP command,
it has been renamed LoadFont.  So LoadFont v1 is functionally
identical to GNU CHCP v1.

GNU TT2FNT is a Windows (Win32) program that must be download
and used separately of FreeDOS.

GNU CHCP is intended to clone the CHCP command found in DOS. However, it is
not compatible. Never worry however, because IMHO GNU CHCP is superior to
Microsoft's CHCP in that it comes with a sofware (GNU TTF2FNT) to convert
TTF fonts to DOS fonts.

This is absolutely the first of its kind. No other software exists capable of
converting TTF files into DOS fonts.

As if this were not enough, a set of free fonts comes with this package.

LOADFONT is a program written entirely in Turbo Pascal and assembly used to
load different character sets used by different languages.

LOADFONT takes around 4096 bytes for the current font. It is very lean and
does not munch away at your PC's resources.

LOADFONT is very small as a program and its source does not take up more than
25 lines of Pascal code. I think it is compilable by TP5.5. I use TP7.
If you want TP7 for free, go to Borland's (Inprise) web site in France and
download it gratis.
