A bitmap font lookalike of the DOS 8x8 font, a.k.a. Codepage 437, widely seen in retro PC games. White and green versions available.

The font is laid out in a yellow grid 1px thick, the stride is 16 chars.

I've created some files for this font suitable for loading as an "ImageFont" with LÖVE or Lutro. Lua supports 128 characters in strings using UTF-8 so I split it into ASCII characters 0-127 for the first file and 128-254 (extended ASCII) for the second.
