Date: Tue, 17 Sep 2002 11:43:04 -0600 :As long as I can override the default font without manual intervention nor recompiling (e.g. using /.rockbox/default.fnt), I won't start a discussion about which font to use as the hardcoded default font. The current design doesn't have the notion of "default" font. Instead, two fonts are available: FONT_SYSFIXED and FONT_UI. At compile-time, there's a compiled-in (currently ugly, soon-to-be-changed) fixed-width font (firmware/X5x8.bdf) which is used to display the version number at startup logo time and panics. After startup, the system uses the FONT_UI, which is mapped to a loadable font, /system.fnt. If this font is not found, then the text output reverts to the compiled-in font. I had plans for a third font to be used, FONT_MP3, which would be used in the WPS display. (everything is selectable by programmers using lcd_setfont(FONT_xxx); If a font is not found, it reverts to the next lower font #, eventually down to the compiled-in font. So I wasn't sure whether you are talking about the compiled-in font default, or the loaded UI font.
