That would be trivial to do. The reason I didn't do it right away was that I had no idea there were so many drivers that call wsfont_find() - at least that shouldn't be necessary anymore in most cases, now that rasops_init() at least tries to pick a sensible font for the screen / terminal size requested. In vga it makes sense ( in order to get an 8 pixels wide font and nothing else ), in igsfb not so much. Also, I'm not aware of any modular wsdisplay drivers. have fun Michael
