Is there any way to make a new font option in a W95 DOS window? When working
with RHIDE I sometimes want it windowed so I can use the taskbar, but filling
asmuch as possibleof the remaining screen area. Unfortunately with the 8x8
setting it's small enough to make me squint, and with the 8x12, it's so tall it
doesn't fit completely onscreen, but still not wide enough. 10x18 is a nice
width but way too tall. I don't suppose I can edit some obscure registry key
and make it, say, 9x10 or 9x11, which I estimate to be about right, is there?

All this is using 80x50 mode in RHIDE. Is there a bigger mode, e.g. 112x72,
that would at least let me take advantage of screen area and the tiny
characters at 8x8?
