Is it possible, and if it is - can you tell me how to change the font
for menus in Mystic BBS?  (This would be for the client side).

In general, fonts are entirely client side. You don't have control
over what the client is using and how they display it - they may be on
a PC using ANSI with extended ASCII characters, a Commodore 64 with
PETSCII, an Atari with ATASCII, a greenscreen terminal with whatever
it comes with... even on PC with telnet there are different telnet
clients with different fonts, many customizable. The BBS software
sends character codes and terminal commands and the client decides
what to do with it.

Yes, I understand.
Synchronet BBS - does have the ability to have the client display a
different font.  Well, after looking at it again, it would be with
SyncTerm.  So a "special" terminal would be necessary.

Thank you
