Hello tn5250 users!

Today I found the time to realize an idea I had since the
starting of the development of tn5250: "real" terminal fonts.

The fonts from x3270 looks right, but they are EBCDIC-encoded. I
have now written a short converter and stored the fonts in
iso-latin1 encoding. You'll find the result in

        ftp://ftp.rubis.ch/pub/tn5250/xfonts-5250_0.1.tar.gz

All the fonts are named 5250* and won't create a naming clash
with x3270.

The original copyrights are still there and it would be
difficult to make a GPL tn5250 if you incorporate the fonts in
the main tree...

Sincerly Beat
