I am looking for a square font, preferably 8x8 pixels per character. I would like it to look something like this:
ibm style font http://dwarf.lendemaindeveille.com/images/0/0e/CGA8x8thick.png
I need more or less of each character shown here, especially in the box. The very few Windows fonts that I found after about an hour of searching do not have very small (if any) extended characters.
I am currently writing pseudo-roguelike, and I always preferred square fonts to roguelikes. I can use other methods if necessary, but it would make my life a million times easier if such a font existed.
Again, it should be compatible with Windows. This is fine if I need to convert some X11 format to Windows compatible, but I need a link to the tools for this.
Or maybe someone knows about a program that easily converts bitmaps into fonts? Since the included image is actually exactly what I want: it looks exactly the same as the old IBM CGA / EGA systems.
Thanks in advance.
