add the font as a configurable feature?  that's available as the -f
and -F options to acme (the Font acme command switches between the
two)...

i can cope reading email at 1024x768 with the euro.8 font (doing that
right now, in fact) but for programming in such small resolutions i
switch to 7x13, which is thinner, fixed size and gives you more space
for code.  it also supports more unicode glyphs than euro.8...
