Windows console applications - console mode selection?

Post by SnowyDog »

Hello all,

I have a collection of PureBasic Windows console mode applications. They are written to exploit "new" console features and although of course will work in legacy console mode, display better out of legacy console mode.

Some of the Windows machines I'm targeting have the legacy console mode as default. Does anyone know of ways to programmatically force the console window out of legacy mode and specify a font and point size for an application?

Thanks
Robin
