Re: Fonts need for programming: courier.nfont

[Daniel J Farrell]

Hello folks,

What a great community GNSstep has. Thanks very much folks!

I managed to find the converting utility to anybody that is  
interested it called mknfont and you can get it here (debian):
http://packages.debian.org/stable/text/mknfonts.tool

Just after I sent that e-mail I managed to criple my GNUstep  
installation by doing something with the synaptics package manager...  
so I'll rebuild and install some fonts tonight.

Cheers,

Daniel.
