Some Amigas may not have these. In particular, the last two come
with the MagicWB package, and are not standard even though rather
common. Checking my fonts: dir, there are also loads of less common
fonts, many of which monospaced. In particular, some systems have
a font called "ascii", designed specifically for ascii art. Many
comm programs come with a font such as "ibm", which is topaz with
the MSDOS extended characters.
