I tried to use the IBM/VGA font in vim. I wish I could stand it.

Any idea which one is good to grill with?

very cool the Tandy fonts take me back thanks for sharing

That's really a magnificent find. I was unaware of it. I see 4 or so options is like try out, and that's just on the first page! Thanks for the share.

Absolutely brilliant site, hmm never ever heard of it either, but definately bookmarked !
Only looked at page 1 as well, that font "Wyse700b" is sweet. Will play arround all weekend with this for sure. As I am sure most of you grillers will too :)
