   VTstar was still downloadable form the VMS freeware site the last
   time I needed a new copy.  All I had to do for the fonts was copy
   the file where Windows would look (i.e. RTFM).

   I've had no issue with double height/double width/..., but I haven't
   tried them for quite some time.  I certain I tested them out because
   I have a little old VT100 compatability test I wrote decades ago
   and it's the first thing I run.
