These fonts have been on here for so long that I thought they were |
31 |
something that the console used or some other system package needed. |
32 |
After all, console has to have a font right? I just didn't want to |
33 |
remove this, reboot and get a error that console has no fonts to display |
34 |
or some such message. Then again, no fonts, maybe no message at all. lol |
35 |
|
36 |
Now to see if I want these fonts and add them to the world file. I like |
37 |
fonts. Try to keep a bunch of them lying around. |
