Thanks. The human readable definitions are similar to this modern YAFF format.
I may be confused by the directory structure... is this font part of the core system...? Can you confirm the small and big font is available in the kernel / as standard ?

... it's simple as a club ... Thank you for the link and info. Would you like to keep using the BDF format?... or can I to port the data to an asm `.inc`, which may be used without further tools...? Do you know where the smaller (6x9px) system font is...? For fun: https://unifoundry.com/unifont/ind...

Thanks @dunkaist! When you are searching the sourcecode in the dark, there seems to be a lot of vestigial font work... Ideally there should be some guide in the wiki... :-) Again the `x.mt` format seems to be raw binary, storing 8x16 bitmaps as Horizontal Least Significant Bit first (HLSB). Bitmaps ...

My current proposal is to move the binary blob into the source file, so it can be annotated and facilitate editing. So in `font_.asm` the file import would be replaced directly: Font_8x16: ; #000 Other '␀' (U+0000 Null) db 2 dup $FF db $FF ; ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ db $FF ; ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ db $FF ; ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ db $FF ; ▓▓▓▓...

I'm looking to improve a couple of glyphs in the standard system font (bug).
Can I confirm, the bitmap data is stored in this binary file: `programs/develop/libraries/fontslib/trunk/font_8x16.fon` ...?

- In most languages that is unusual. A Russian native colleague has confirmed to me that "Usually software names in Russia always remain original. Windows, MS Office and so on".

I have been asked to include the authors list from `kernel.asm`. Questions: 1. Is it necessary to sort the contributors chronologically? It seems more reasonable to just do it alphabetically... 2. It creates more work maintaining this list in two places. Can the kernel comments be removed and replac...

I'm not sure if it is desirable to maintain some parity between locales(?), but I have provided the opening text below for feedback: EN: We thank everyone who helped to create and develop KolibriOS, many of whom are listed below, with the most recent contributors first.

I'd like to make some small enhancements to the translation of bundled text documents.
