Allen,

I put together an excel sheet to aid in font creation.  It allows you to create a font
in a visual fashion with the result of an Intel HEX code listing of the 2k rom for the 128 ASCII
character set.

The board will use a 16k rom enabling 8 different character sets to be selected by dip switch.

- Ed

I wrote them a letter about it, and I was going to design a replacement font for them. I found (last week) my original note pad with - IN PENCIL - the data statements for the font. I don't know what I used to design them, but I did not have a printer. I am going to have to type this in and see what the font looked like.
