[comp.sys.3b1] Trouble with fonts

car@ramecs.UUCP (Chris Rende) (04/22/91)

I'm having trouble getting some fonts from OSU to work.

I type the following commands:

cfont thin.cfont >thin.ft
setf 0
setf thin.ft 0
tput clear

The characters do become thin but it doesn't quite produce the desired results:
- The number of screen lines is still 24 (should be 36)
- The cursor is still the old size

What am I doing wrong?
