proper setups for viewing ANSI art or telnetting to BBSes in xterm and mac os x terminal.app. includes dos437, a BDF pixel-for-pixel translation of the DOS 437 codepage font, with a converted TrueType version. xterm: convert the BDF font to a PCF font (if necessary) and then install it: - bdftopcf dos437.bdf > fonts/dos437.pcf - sudo cp fonts/dos437.pcf /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/ - cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/; sudo mkfontdir and then run ansiterm.sh to launch xterm with proper colors and the dos437 font. for tiling window managers, make sure the resulting xterm window is exactly 80 characters wide. terminal.app: install the ttf font (double-click it to open it in font book, and then click install) and then install the terminal settings profile by double clicking it. verify that the font used is dos437 in 8pt, antialias is off, the character encoding is "western (ascii)", and the terminal is 80x24. in either xterm or terminal.app, ansi art files should display properly with cat. BBSes should display fine through the standard telnet program.
