Terminus for Skyrim console
===========================

The default arial font looks terrible in the console. I'm not
sure it's even monospace :\

The Terminus font is much better becasue you'll see more lines
and characters will allign between lines.

Installation
============
The archive will not overwrite your original fontconfig.txt
You will have to manually edit the file to enable this font.

[list=1]
[*] Examine the files, compare these declarations:
skyrim/Data/Interface/fontconfig.txt
skyrim/Data/Interface/fontconfig.tox2ik.txt
==============================================

fontlib "Interface\fonts_console.swf"
map "$ConsoleFont" = "Arial" Normal
----------------------------------------------
(you will need to add:)
fontlib "Interface\font_terminus.swf"
map "$ConsoleFont" = "Terminus" Normal
[*] add / edit lines to your liking
[*] save fontconfig.txt
[*] run game and profit!
[/list]


Future plans / Plea for help
============================
I will probably try to include Consolas (MS) becasue it's a
nice console font too. I already tried. Read my notes in
Data/Readmes/readme.tox bigger console smaller fonts if you
care to. I would not mind getting some help increating the
height of the console overlay, becasue I'm a total knob
with flash and don't know which tools to use. A few links
to good and informative videos/text pages will go a long way.

License
=======
I'm probably required to include the license in the archive,
but we'll skip that since no one cares about a silly mod like
this.
