There are a number of things you can configure to suit your preference.
Changing the font.
You can select any installed font but mono-spaced ones are preferred.
When you change the font size, the display area will change.
Changing "Extra Char Pixels" in the MMCC.inf file also changes the display
width.
Font size = 10 Extra Char Pixels = 0is a good choice
Extra Line Pixels = 1
Leave as is. This extra line is needed for the cursor
Chr(0) as space = 1
Chr(0) is usually ignored in terminals. Setting this to 1 converts all chr(0) to
a space.
CodePage = cp...
Changing code pages can expand the range of characters that the terminal
displays. cp437 is the original IBM character set.
cpcmm2 is a set of symbols that closely matches Font 1 on the CMM2 and
picomites.
Not all symbols are available.
Due to an internal bug, printing some symbols requires a "fix" This
"fix" may cause issues so it can be disabled with "Character fix
= 0"
cp1125 is a code page for the Ukrainian language.
Other code pages can be easily added by following the format of the cp*.inf
files in the data folder. You only need to supply the characters that are
different to cp437
The cp*.inf files are in the same format is the ones used by FontTweak so a font
for use on a picomite display can match a codepage created for MMCC
Wikipedia is a good source of code page information
Swap degree = 1
All picomite fonts use the degree symbol in place of the backtick. This option
can be turned off.
[VTterminal] Font Name = Lucida Console Font size = 10 Extra Char Pixels = 0 Extra Line Pixels = 1 ... Chr(0) as space = 1 Timestamp newlines = 0 CodePage = cp1125 Swap degree = 1 Character fix = 1
