Programming / Re: BearLibTerminal: a pseudo-terminal window library for roguelike

Dawnlike is 16x16 that I resize to 20x20 in the config options because my vision is poor.

Also, I think the cellsize trick might work for my purposes. I'll experiment with this - thanks.

Two questions:

1) When using a codepage to map Unicode code points, is it possible to skip rows?

I have the Dawnlike tileset, and it has a ton of images I won't use, so I would like to map small codepages to the 0xE000-0xF8FF Unicode space tightly. For example, the GUI tileset has things like hearts in the first few rows that I won't be using in my game, but I like the GUI windows. I only need the nine tiles that make up the borders, edges, and fill.

2) I'm unsure of how to use differently sized fonts. Each letter takes up a whole tile regardless, and I'd like for my UI text to look more natural and be smaller than the 20x20 image tiles I am using. I looked at the source of the OmniSample, but that did not seem to have the desired effect for me.
