Hey Nicholas!

 NB> So I'm not able to change the actual consolefont. However,
 NB> PuTTY's fonts support quite a bit

Excellent.  Basically all that is really needed is to get the codes right. 
Displaying them properly to whatever app shouldn't be as big as a deal as it
appears to be methinks.

 NB> Whaaaaat? Maurice using a gui? That's unheard of! :)

Not quite but you're right about it being a rare sight in these parts.  I've
even contemplated running windows in qemu just to check on compatibilty issues
but so far haven't taken the plunge.  At this stage of the game it seems
entirely unlikely.

 NB> Did you just randomize all 48 from that site?

Only the ones that were 79 bytes or less.  Also had to get rid of the hard
breaking spaces web people are so fond of.  Normally those are hard to spot so
I just let whatever filter go ahead and delete them whether or not they
actually exist.  It seems to have worked.  Also I've added to the tagline file
but it sounds like you found the original source.  Not many Ænglisc speaking
people these days but I figure we might as well go full backwards compatible
whenever possible.  :-)

Life is good,
Maurice
