Message-ID: <1613@mtunb.ATT.COM> Date: 11 Aug 89 23:05:33 GMT Reply-To: jcm@mtunb.UUCP (John McMillan) Distribution: na Organization: AT&T ISL Middletown NJ USA Lines: 26 I understand the concept, I think/hope, but the Stealth Bomber is an open project in comparison: 1) mark font_int Sx Sy rot nchars ... setfonts Let's guess: is the font identifying integer the "UniqueId" attribute of the font? Presumably Sx,Sy and rot are scaling and rotation. What is "nchars" & how is it used? 2) Since 'idlefonts' cleverly returns NUL information when the 'default' is in effect, where does one find out the default? My LW/II-NT[X]s don't seem to document this in their manual, and -- to my surprise -- the PPDFiles don't seem to carry this, either! None of my four reference books seem to have a useful entry on this problem. HELP (Glen?)! john mcmillan -- att!mtunb!jcm PS: thanks to Bill for pointing out the PS sequence to lock the baud rate at 19200 across power cycles. Now I've just got to keep repeating to myself: "On the west coast, a switch labelled 9600 means 'any EE-ROMed value'"...
