   The C128 has loadable fonts.  To do it on the Apple //e would require   
   using graphics mode.   
      
   I bet the Apple /// could do it though - but I don't understand enough Z3   
   let alone Beyond Zork's Z5 to be able to do anything in that regard.  (I'm   
   still stuck reverse-engineering the Z3 interpreter M.)
