First of all you did a great job! I converted succesfully my old Amiga GFA Basic program to X11. Big difference was to make it working on the graphic screen of X11. Other difference was the array (yours starting at 0, Amiga GFA starts at 1).
My question: How can I make the fontsize bigger when using GPRINT AT? I tried several things and examples on the SETFONT, but without luck. Big and large remained the same size as with normal size. DEFTEXT / LTEXT can be used and sizing works fine but are not ttf.
X11 on OS: Windows 10

Thank you for the compliments. It should e possible to load a different and bigger font even on Windows, but i must say, that I have forgotten how that was implemented. I am not using Windows myself, but the SDL library which does the graphics has a function to load true type fonts. Please let me come back on this issue later.
hm, it looks like only three font sizes are implemented in the Windows version. You can change them with SETFONT. The options are "SMALL" "MEDIUM" and "BIG". I fear, that you want bigger than big. Sorry, this is currently not supported (and also no true type fonts).
Thanks for your response. I think I'll have to deal with it ;)
