Kind of a silly question, but is there anyway to get W2K to recognize different font options for the command prompt?

I have a few other FON and TTF files installed (some of which support the DOS codepage), but the only options seem to be "Raster Fonts" and "Lucida Console". Searching the registry hasn't really turned anything up.

On the Font tab of the property page of the Cmd.exe shortcut, appear only TTF fixed-pitch regular without Italics FF_MODERN fonts(or OEM_CHARSET for other fonts) without a negative A or C space.

Use Fontographer and build your own fonts because Letter Gothic or Century Schoolbook Monospace do not comply to such conditions.
