MAC  fonts would certainly be nice. In the mean while, i use the nice looking
fonts that came with the EazyDraw pacakage. They seem to work quite nicely
with Gdos. Also, if you have the PD FED font editor, you can use the .FED fonts
after byte swapping the integers to intel format integers ( i have'nt tried it
as yet). degas elite also has a utility that will convert degas fonts (they
are quite 'blocky' though) to gdos format.
