I chose Courier_New for my Windows font setting specifically because
it contains glyphs for some Unicode codepoints not in Fixedsys,
which I otherwise like. I just copied the cANSI part from
someplace; I don't remember where. If using cDEFAULT will make even
more codepoints available, that would be great. I'll try it when I
get to work on Monday. Thank you.
