I have fallen heir to an Extended Graphics Adapter card, and
would like to do multiple fonts from the cursor (not graphics nor
alpha) mode. The PC Seminar Proceedings paper (Vol. 2, Number
11, Nov. 1984) documents how to load custom character generators
into the EGA card, and I have been able to load my own 256
character font as the default font without difficulty.
There are, however, slots for four complete fonts. Once I load
the four fonts, does anyone have any idea how I can access the
three spare fonts? I would like, if possible, to store the full
1024 characters and access them in a fairly random manner. If
this can be done in the cursor mode, I can write the routines to
make most of my commercial programs run with several foreign
alphabets.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
