Fantasque Sans Mono is a programming font, designed with functionality
in mind, and with some wibbly-wobbly handwriting-like fuzziness that
makes it unassumingly cool.

standard.
When text is rendered by a computer, sometimes characters are displayed as
"tofu". They are little boxes to indicate your device doesn't have a font to
display the text. Google has been developing a font family called Noto,
which aims to support all languages with a harmonious look and feel. Noto is
Google's answer to tofu. The name noto is to convey the idea that Google's
goal is to see "no more tofu". Noto has multiple styles and weights, and
freely available to all.

BlockZone is a faithful, pixel-perfect recreation of the original DOS font.
It contains each of the 256 characters, including those in the 128-255 range,
referred to as extended ASCII. BlockZone is capabable of rendering ANSI and
ASCII art, in fact that is the purpose it was created for. It supports a wide
range of codepages, the legendary codepage 437 (MS-DOS Latin US) as well as
Baltic, Cyrillic, French Canadian, Greek, Hebrew, Icelandic, Latin-1, Latin-2,
Nordic, Portuguese, Turkish charsets, Windows codepage 1252 and even more. All
characters are mapped to their Unicode equivalents. You get the best results
when anti-aliasing (font smoothing) is disabled.
