Re: Different screen font?

Perhaps you would not want to run all applications in 40 column mode

but if you want to try, "Mode Mono40" in a command line might work.

 

It 's not pretty but it should be BIG enough.   :-)

Thank you, everybody for your 
responses.

John: The 2020 editor unfortunately ignores all letters above 
ASCII 
128, so is unusable for Germans (and French, Spanish..etc.)
I do 
have a simple editor with one large font (LapWrite from 
Travelling 
software), but would have liked to have something a bit 
more sophisticated, 
such as supporting some outlining capability.

Sven, re TurboPascal. Right 
now I don't even know what a widget is..! 
But that editor project does sound 
like something to spend a bit of 
time on if I feel bored.

But I would 
prefer it if there was a utility to allow running any 
standard program in a 
larger font.
So Mark, if you dig up the DOS TSR to change the font you 
mentioned, 
I would like to try it out. There are of course many that 
accomplish 
this for VGA, but I have not found one for CGA 
screens.
