Windsfont

Windsfont is font created specifically for TinyMARE. When combined with the appropriate settings on the MARE they provide additional graphics not otherwise available through a terminal client.

There are several ways to get windsfont. The primary (and probably most difficult for your average player) method involves downloading the source files and building the font yourself. If you choose to go this route, you'll need a C compiler and Make. It's strongly recommended that you have some experience with Make as the last time I poke it the Makefile needed tweaking. If you want to explore this option, you can download the source here: https://www.winds.org/pub/tinymare/windsfont-1.6.2.tar.gz

Since that looks all complicated, wouldn't it be nice if someone went through all that trouble and built the fonts for you? Good news! It's been done. The font comes in four flavors and they are provided below:

Presently installation is left as an exercise to the user, but you might want to check the appropriate section of Readme.fonts.
