BD> How I can install others fonts in The Bat! ie : Arial or Times ?
Arial and Times are both variable width fonts. They are not usable
because of the following:
(previously posted by Ali Martin)
The Bat! uses a plain text editor with unusual but powerful
features which unfortunately restricts us to using a
monospaced or fixed-width font. The majority of fonts in
windows are variable-width fonts and are therefore not
included in TB!'s font list.
I would also point out that an early vote revealed that many of us
like the Andale Mono font for use with TB.
If you really want to use a variable font (and it is not recommended)
then you can force it with a registry hack:
(posted previously by Alexander V. Kisilev)
For if you _absolutely_ need variable- width font ..., you can go
and manually edit your registry, in particular, these sections of
it:
HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\RIT\The Bat!\Editor\Font
HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\RIT\The Bat!\Rich Text
If you manually edit there the name of the font to be used, The
Bat! will obey... But be advised, that if, for example, you write
there "Arial", you'll hardly manage to read anything:-)
BD> Thanx for answer,
...again? Did you not see my previous post of this response? Are you
having a problem? Please reply to me privately if you are having
difficulties receiving from the list.
Cheers,
Marck
