Hi Claudia,

I made some tests with $_Xfont = "vga" The problem is that it has no
codepage 850 ! And the xreen is too big with 50 lines, 34 works grat, 43
would be fine but does not work.

I have to work in graphics mode, and let the dos display driver set the
caracters.

The cursor works ok with 80x34 which is a little better because it uses
480rows, but I cannot find a command line tool to set this mode (I could
write one if someone tells me the bios modes)

Is there a VGA font for codepage 850?

Alain
