Thread: windows fonts for console

Hi,

I'm pretty sick of having to recompile everytime I need to modify a variable, so I'm implementing a console right now, I have a couple of questions:
1. I'll use one of Windows fonts along with wglUseFontBitmaps, to make my life easier, I'll use a font with fixed character width, will Courier work for me? (I'm open to suggestions)
2. CreateFont first 2 variables are height and width according to MSDN, how to convert them into pixel width and height? (to be used for calculations to align words/lines correctly)

thanks in advance.
