■ What is TED?
TED(r) is a 256-colors bitmap cuter. You can cut letters from GIF,CEL,BMP
files, and save it into .TED (font) files. You can use .TED files in a
few languages, if you can translate this pascal examples to you language.
■ TED file format.
It have 20 bytes header, and random number of blocks.
bytes info
------------------------------------------------------
│ 20 │ file header │
------------------------------------------------------
│ 1 │ char of block (1) │
------------------------------------------------------
│ 1 │ x size of char (1) │
------------------------------------------------------
│ 1 │ y size of char (1) │
------------------------------------------------------
│ x*y │ char data (1) │

■ Why to cut a bitmap into ted file?
First, you must run TED, and press F3 to load a bitmap, next
press 1,2 or 3. When you load it, use mouse and key arrows to
set char size.
Exmaple:
/[ MOUSE POINTER
/
/----------\ /[ PART OF BITMAP
| AAAAAA | BBBB CCCC /
| A A | B B C
| AAAAAA | BBBB C
| A A | B B C
| A A | BBBB CCCC
| |
| |
| |
\----------/ \
\[ USE UP/LEFT ARROWS TO CHANGE SIZE
/------\
|AAAAAA| BBBB CCCC
|A A| B B C
|AAAAAA| BBBB C
|A A| B B C
|A A| BBBB CCCC
\------/
And next press key "A" to add char A into font.
Do that with all letters and press F2, and 1 to save it into .TED file.
Later, if you want to add a letter to charset, use F2, and 2 to
add it.
■ Why to use TED?
Because, random char can have different size! All font cuters that i
seen must have same X-Y size. And that i use my font file format
and editor. TED isn't amazing, but this it first version, and it
have many bugs. You have all sources (without gif.pas) so, you can
modyfi it (if you register it!) and use it in better form.
There is a few pascal examples. They looks quite good on my 486 SX 25MHz.
I use some assembler (basm) procedures, to speed up scrollers.
■ How to register.
If you want to register TED (read fuqnware.doc) you must send $$$ (cash)
to me. How much? As you want, you can send 10$-50$ (or more if you want).
■ How to concat with me.
You have few ways to ask,talk with me:

■ SOO!! If you want more fonts, more sources, more examples, register TED
and concat with ME!
■ SORRY for this language... but my english isn't very good (as you see) :)
■ Greetz to all my friends from IRC, and thanx to all ppl who help me...
