6) Does anyone know a way that I can get a character from the system font
	into memory so I can blit it, look at the bits, etc.?  The only
	way I can think of is to print it to the screen and then do
	a raster copy on it.  But I don't want the user to see the character,
	and would rather not do hacks like changing the color registers
	so the character doesn't show up.  Is there a way to access the
	font data legally?  Is there some inquire function or something?
