295.2Gothic BannersREGENT::MINOWMartin Minow -- DECtalk EngineeringTue Aug 26 1986 19:3112
Feel free to copy
	REX""::USER$A:[DECUSC.MISC]GOTHIC.C
				   GOTTAB.C
for the ever-popular "gothic text" program.

Also, you can copy BANNER.C from the same directory.
This generates large, but not huge, letters.

All public-domain.

re: .5

If it doesn't run any more, you should fix your VMS system.

Or, you could copy the sources from
	BOLT::DECUSC$LIBRARY:[MISC] GOTHIC.C, GOTTAB.C

Note: they were last modified in 1981, so you may have to do
some editing.

295.7this one still worksGLORY::HULLMotor City MadnessTue Sep 15 1987 02:099
    If you don't want to mess around with sorces, etc, you can copy
    my copy of GOTHIC.EXE from
    
    ECASWS::USRD5$:[HULL]GOTHIC.EXE
    
    
    Enjoy!

295.8BUNYIP::QUODLINGAin't no time to wonder why...Wed Sep 16 1987 09:555
        If it stopped working and has been around for a while, it probably
        depended on vax-11 rsx. Use a newer version...

295.9missing the fonts?QED::EVANSRobert N. Evans DTN-228-2180 @FXO/AIWed Sep 16 1987 18:224
re: .5  I think you also need the datafile GOTHIC.VAP which probably
contains the fonts used by GOTHIC.EXE.  I don't think this needs VAX-11 RSX.
A complete set of the 3 files necessary to run GOTHIC may be copied from
QED::USR$:[EVANS.GOTHIC]
