Post #161,510 by drewk 6/24/04 5:10:56 PM Reply	Ooh, hadn't thought about that I'll have to take a look at some of the people that already have them rotated and see what the text looks like. === Implicitly condoning stupidity since 2001.
Post #161,512 by drewk 6/24/04 5:14:51 PM Reply	But you know what? I use a system font for my coding specifically so I don't have to worry aout anti-aliasing of the text. Every line is exactly one full pixel wide. (Unless it's bold, then it's two full pixels.) So turning vertical might look just fine for me. === Implicitly condoning stupidity since 2001.
