Ascii output to php/html like nfodiz viewer

what kind of font i must use to get the output from a nfo.file [the ones
that are in de released games etc, or isonews.org] the same as in nfodiz
file viewer ?
the font in that program is terminal, and when im using terminal font on my
webpage [php] no blocks are showing, only lines.

Anyone has a solution for this or is this impossible ?

This line in Your's .css might help :

pre { font-size : 10px;  font-weight:bold; font-family: lucida console, 
courier, sans-serif, verdana, arial, geneva, helvetica; }

if 2 b or not 2 b then this is a else question

That doesn't make any sense... :\ Especially
since Hamlet says "That is the question."

perchance you people have seen this:

I use it on occasions when I have need inspiration during a flame.
Load up the page and hit refresh until something inspires me to enter
brave new territory in creative flaming.

The terminal font has several sizes which all have different character
sets. So, use size 12 or 14, 6 will probably also work AFAIK.

ms-linedraw.ttf is a crud(e) replacement for Terminal.fon

for on-line usage it will need to be converted to a dynamic web-font
of which only a few browsers are capable displaying eg: Ns4

Ns6.x has dynamic fonts disabled (yes... i've complained :()
Ie4.x and Ie5.x are also capable but require additional driver/player

i did a couple of experiments some time ago ... with mixed results

i used Bitstream's Web-Font maker to produce a .pfr file
(pfr == portable font resource) from ms-linedraw.ttf

take a look at:
 http://www.shieldwolf.demon.co.uk/ansi-X/test/ibm_pfr.html
 http://www.shieldwolf.demon.co.uk/ansi-X/test/swolf_pfr.html

altho' i can't guarantee it'll work with your browser and
in fact the only ones are Ns4.5 (not Ns6!) and Ie4 and Ie5
running on win32 (i haven't tried Ns4.6 on unix/linux/gnu-system
but i don't see why it shouldn't work)

there is also a large overhead penalty involved:
page size:      5 Kb  text/html data: 8-bit
font size:     20 Kb  font/tdpfr truedoc pfr
tdserver.cab: 200 Kb  bitstream.com  [IExplorer only]

I went to that site...
I would guess that having called someone a dissembling fly-bitten canker-blossom of a man might tend
to engender ill will... and sort of reminds me of Rimmer from Red Dwarf ;)

I did once write a poem to some trumped up youmg man on line. He was trying to tell me what poetry
was, and his sad sample was purile and in poor taste, for no other reason it seemed than "he could
in the name of art".. so much cycled pig fodder if you ask me.



following isnt ascii related, but I was reminded of the incident from the insult site.
