DTL Text

Is there a table on the pixel size for english chars used in the DTL text or some other smart way of working out if the text will fit.
Trail and error with 30 switchs is taking a bit too long.

I'll see what i can do...

DLT Text

I know how many pixels the window is so if i know how many pixels each char takes i write a bit of code to get the text and add up the total pixels.
Then tell me if its greater than the window size.
Save me running all over the house checking switches

When i get excited enough i'll do the next 129 chars for Western Euro fonts.

Hope this is enough for now...

Cheers,
Mark.

P.s. Feel free to post a calculator app once you've written it Dave!

P.p.s. Only 62 of the 64 pixels are available for text.

Attached is the full ASCII table supported by DLT. The following Codepage 2 chars start at $7F.

Forums have gone a bit mad with undefined chars (ie. line 3). See txt file attached...
