VARKON Version 1.15 1997-10-16
Environment variable
Description
Environment variable used by VARKON to locate files with fonts for
vector based graphical text (the TEXT statement in MBS). Version 1.14 of
VARKON includes two fonts named font 0 and font 1. Additional fonts can
be defined by the user. Font 0 is the system default and its appearence
is hardcoded within the system. Font 1 is defined in a fontfile named 1.FNT
residing in $VARKON_FNT. 1.FNT is not loaded until it is used for the first
time but then it stays loaded in memory until VARKON terminates.
If a user defined font is created it should have a name beginning at 10.FNT
and higer up to 20.FNT and reside in $VARKON_FNT.
Comments
If VARKON_FNT is not defined a hard coded default will be used.
If VARKON_FNT points to a non existent directory or if read permission
to $VARKON_FNT is missing no loadable fonts will be available and the system
default (font 0) will be used instead.
