This font pkg makes ansi fonts work in the terminal.app of osx. Hello my name is timball and I'm addicted to irc.

Put the ASCII.ttf into /Library/Fonts/ then in the terminal.app:

Terminal - Window Settings...
[Display]
Set Font...
All Fonts - New - Regular - 11pt

Set as default if you want it that way... I know I do.

Decius: Thank You! If someone had done this, say, 20 years ago macs might have actually been useful for BBSing and apple might have been in a better place in the market.

[Hm. I guess I might try it. I use courier new, and don't seem to have any problems with much of anything. I'm not that heavy a terminal user, however, to be fair. And I don't use it for IRC.

I do use Visor, because having a terminal at the touch of Command-~ no matter what app i'm using is pretty damn awesome.
