README
dosemu-fonts (fonts from dosemu, packaged for system-wide use) DOSEmu includes various VGA-style fonts, which get installed to a private directory, used only by DOSEmu. This package installs the same fonts in the system-wide /usr/share/fonts/misc directory, so other software can use them. These fonts are for codepages 437, 866, and 1125. ASCII text displays correctly with them, but they don't support Unicode or ISO-8859-* encodings. They're useful for applications such as BitchX (which uses codepage 437) and viewing old text files from MS-DOS. After the package is installed, you may have to run "xset fp rehash" to make the fonts available to X. You can get a list of the fonts with "xlsfonts -fn -dosemu-*". Also, there are short aliases, so you can run e.g. "xterm -fn vga11x19". These are: vga vga8x19 vga11x19 vga10x24 vga12x30 vgacyr vga10x20 vga-ua vga10x20-ua.
