sounds good, thanks Llorean. ;)

to comment on the art: I would prefer the usual logo that is found in most patches, but the one you've come up with is alright, good work. I'm glad that you feel pationate enough about your program to make some sweet ASCII for it ;).

I would make a linux version if i knew anything about linux. Batch files of this type were new to me at the start, but i had a basic (Read: Very Limited) understanding of DOS commands and scripting, so who knows. I might have a play later for a linux version.

Anyone want to comment on the art? Anyone got any ideas/suggestions for the art?

If you really want to know, personally I couldn't care less about ascii art. I'm barely gonna see it. However, I appreciate the convenience of the batch file and you're welcome to make it look however you want. :)

Well i just want to make it look good. I'm kinda obsessive compulsive when it comes to how my apps look. :P

Some neat ASCII was the obvious choice. I think i could do better though.

New Version Uploaded!

This is probably the last version that will be released unless i end up making it detect if it's a BDF you've supplied and just converts like that.

See the wiki page (Link in the first post) for the download links. I will be posting updates and links there from now on to save modifying t posts all the time.

EDIT: Bascule, the awesome guy, brought to my attention the fact that he'd already done the .bdf checking in a previous version. I, being the idiot i am, missed it - so a new version is in the works, combining the working version 1.2 and the .bdf checking.

Therefore, the zipped version is going on hold for now. You just need to get the latest .bat. Zips will come later.

I was having an issue where the font I was converting (bitlow) was resulting in a few characters having a extra pixel of space to the left of the character while others didn't. I ended up fixing the troubled characters by opening the bdf in FontForge and adjusting the width.

Is there something I can select with the font converter to work around this? I tried setting the character spacing options in the ttf to bdf app, but none of those helped.
