I've been experimenting with NOT USING FONTS AT ALL for some character
graphics applications. The reason is that I want to be able "download"
my own custom mathematical fonts. The obvious implementation using
an off-screen pixel array for your font and copy-pixel operations for
draw-character and draw-string works well enough on my vaxstation-3100 (VMS).
