Re: Change terminal attributes

[Bryan Christ]

Sorry.  I don't know of anyway to mix terminal fonts.  You can easily 
change your terminal font by calling the user-space tool "setfont", but 
that will change the entire terminal.  It's not pretty, but you many 
need to write your own line-art font rendering routines.  Take a look at 
"myman" http://www.geocities.com/bsittler/#myman and see how the author 
does that in the "big" version of the game.
