I have read that the address of the BIOS 8x8 fonts is FFA6:000E. Is this correct? If so, to tranlsate this to the physical address the segment (FFA6,) must be shifted-left once, then added to the offset, (000E). Is this correct? I ask, because I tried to access this memory but a run-time error keeps occuring. If someone knows how to access the BIOS 8x8 fonts, please explain the procedure to me. Thank you.
If there are BIOS fonts does that mean you could use them in text mode?
I saw a program once that did change the font in text mode, and it was only like 5 lines long!
You can POKE new values to the font, thus changing it to whatever you want..
However, do it wrong and you end up with lots of troubles, and on most modern computers it wouldnt work as Windows ans Linux alike block access to such lowlevel systems as the BIOS
