ttf-gdos Files

This GEMSYS folder contains a variety of fonts including some that
closely resemble the fonts of the original Atari GDOS distribution.

These fonts are free to use, distribute and modify, as per the licences.

They have been reduced to a relatively small size by removing unused
characters and renamed to match the names of the original Atari GDOS
fonts (where appropriate) and to differentiate them from their original
source (as per licensing terms & conditions).


assign.sys
----------
This is an assign.sys for the fonts in the folder.
Use this to create a ttf-gdos.inf file.

Note:
this and the associated ttf-gdos.inf file assume that your GEMSYS
folder is C:\GEMSYS.  If this is not the case, edit the path comamnd in the
file and use ass-conv.ttp to create a new ttf-gdos.inf.  The first parameter
is assign.sys, the second is A:\TTF-GDOS.INF, where A: is your boot drive.

The ttf-gdos.inf file needs to go into the root directory of your boot drive.
See ttf-gdos.txt for more details.


ttf-gdos.inf
------------
This inf file corresponds to the above assign.sys
It needs to be copied to the root of the boot drive.
