Actually, while on nostalgia lane, does anyone else remember the font called Boston II? It was a shareware font that was the best ImageWriter bitmap font ever.

Actually, while on nostalgia lane, does anyone else remember the font called Boston II? It was a shareware font that was the best ImageWriter bitmap font ever. It was a thing of beauty. I've looked for it occasionally, but I haven't found any web references for it.
- mainland 11y agoA bit of Googling got me this: gopher://gopher.floodgap.com/1/archive/userserve-ucsd-edu/Fonts/%20bitmapped%20fonts/screen-ImageWriter%20Fonts/Boston%20II Hopefully that's what you're looking for :)
- girvo 11y agoWhoa. I've not seen a gopher link since the 90's. What connects to that protocol these days?
- phaemon 11y agocURL can handle gopher. I was actually surprised Firefox couldn't. I guess they removed it at a some point.
- icebraining 11y agoAny browser, if you use a gateway: http://gopher.floodgap.com/gopher/gw?a=gopher%3A%2F%2Fgopher.floodgap.com%2F1%2Farchive%2Fuserserve-ucsd-edu%2FFonts%2F%2520bitmapped%2520fonts%2Fscreen-ImageWriter%2520Fonts%2FBoston%2520II http://gopher.floodgap.com/gopher/gw?a=gopher%3A%2F%2Fgopher...
- mainland 11y agoThe OverbiteFF extension (http://gopher.floodgap.com/overbite/ http://gopher.floodgap.com/overbite/) will let you use the gopher protocol as well. I actually installed it just so I could browse the floodgap gopher server.
- cschmidt 11y agoWow, I'm impressed with your Google skills. Gopher? That's so funny. Now I just have to figure out how to convert it to something usable.
