Great tut Mentality !
I have find the default mIRC Font
Fixedsys with
support of unicode ! It's called
Fixedsys Excelsior and it look exactly like the default one.. But with support of unicode(of course it doesn't support all language like the 6mb Bitstream Cyberbit).
The lastest version what i was able to find is 2.0.
The official
site seem to be dead/down(but still a
archive copy here), the last author message on the
board, date 06-08-2004, he said what a new version will be released in a month, but it seem to be 2006 now, and no new version..
