>Who/what replaces Foxfont? Aah, I think I know what you mean. You mean that the font appears not to be used, but instead another font is displayed?! That indicates that the OS could not fulfil the request to display the foxfont. You might try AFONT(). If foxfont is not in the resulting array, then it's not (properly) installed on that machine.

It's installed OK, but on some machines it only works some of the time - really weird.
Anyway I've purchased Courier LD from a font company for $40. Does the job - it has the line draw characters within the 0-255 ascii range.
