I asked but noone > seemed to be able to give me a definitive description of them :-( You can find detailed description of koi8-r encoding at: http://www.nagual.ru/~ache/koi8.html > cp437-8x14.fnt::FreeBSD 2.1R English code page, 43 line FreeBSD prefix must be ommited, they are adapter binary font so they not related to FreeBSD only (you can use them in DOS too). "Code page" is IBM name for character sets, I don't think that we need to use IBM names. "English" word (or any word related to language) must be used very correctly, in this way you need to mention all languages related to character set, i.e. all Russian character sets really are "English & Russian". Line count not related to adapter font, you can have several 50-lines modes with different fonts in general. Better way refer to them as VGA/EGA/CGA fonts. -- Andrey A.
