So, is there a way to preview all the fonts easily? fonttest.js says console undefined (Windows machine).

!JavaScript C:\SBBS\exec\load\cterm_lib.js line 24: ReferenceError: console is not defined

Ideas?

You can't run fonttest.js using jsexec, is that what you're trying to do?

To execute fonttest.js, use the ;EXEC sysop comand:

;EXEC ?fonttest

Or just add it as an external program with a command-line of "?fonttest".

When run without any arguments, it'll walk through all the possible fonts in the client (e.g. those hard-coded in SyncTERM or configured by the user), using the + and - keys.

When run with an path to the fonts folder, it'll load each font file dynamically (as you scroll through them using +/-):

;EXEC ?fonttest fonts/*.f*

My fonts.ini settings are here: http://cvs.synchro.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/ctrl/fonts.ini

and described here:
http://wiki.synchro.net/config:fonts.ini

As for fonttest.js, perhaps you just need a SyncTERM 1.1b update. I originally tested it with SyncTERM 1.0 and it worked, but perhaps something in the script(s) changed. I'll try it again.

The latest release of SyncTERM is still 1.0. Version 1.1b is currently under development.

In Linux? I know in Ubuntu's desktop, you have to the Windows key combined with Alt-key combination for the applications to get the alt-key input. Not sure if you're running SyncTERM on Linux or not.

No, I'm running Windows 7 32-bit. I went back to the 1.1 version, as I
like it's setup better...and have made it also for download. The
previous version I had was 0.03 -- rather early. :P

You can choose Commodore fonts already in SyncTERM. There a number of Amiga fonts to choose from.

None that I know of. There's quite a lot already supported and more can be sent from the BBS dynamically (they don't have to be built into SyncTERM):

PNG, .FNT, .FON, TTF, any of those or almost any format that I could work with. I currently have .fnt and .fon files I would like to use in syncterm, although I could convert it to something else before .f8 .f16 if that is what is needed.
