80column game started in wine: what font to use?
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hello,
I was starting a reversi game in a 80column terminal started with wine: I see the attachment.
Looks like I installed the wrong font: which one should I install?
Any advice and recommendation is welcome.
(lucida and consolas fonts were installed with winetricks; the result is still not good)


UPDATE and closure: installing microsoft fonts in linux directly solved the issue
Quote:

apt-get install msttcorefonts
Now the reversi looks like a reversi grid.
The video emulator came from there https://hp.giesselink.com/HPIL/Ilvideo80_1.3.zip
The reversi came from there http://www.jeffcalc.hp41.eu/emu71/index.html#games

Please post solutions as a follow-up post - not in an edit - because:

1) it removes the thread from the list of "Zero Reply Threads".
2) it causes anyone who might have subscribed to get notified (which editing doesn't do).

You can choose the font by yourself which font you want to get.
