BIOS Font use
BIOS Font use
(OP)
Gentlemen and Ladies:
On November 25th DAV posted an excellent Sub using the BIOS font information. I used it in SCREEN 12, 80, 30, and found that it had the same size character as 80, 60 would give. It was transparent which I like but need the larger character size. Is the larger character size at a different location than DEF SEG = &HFFA6? And what changes would be needed in the SUB BIOSPRINT ?
Thanks for your comments,
Jack C.

RE: BIOS Font use
If you have QuickBasic version 4.5 you can see 1 example (a couple of different fonts are done but they are all done in the same way) in my installd6.bas program
