copied!<p>Here some code I scraped together from several sources. Allows me to use codepages, avoids unicode. However, wprintf() etc should work, too.</p> <p>Only consolas and lucida console work sofar. Includes an attempt to get a similar size.</p> <p>Checks include the validitycheck of the nFont index. That may be unneeded, in which case you can leave out the undocumented call to kernel32 routine GetNumberOfConsoleFonts().</p> <p>Hans says it won't work on XP, <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms686200%28v=vs.85%29.aspx" rel="nofollow">docs</a> say minimum _WIN32_WINNT is 0x500 which would include XP.
