How can I use Fixedsys font?

hi all

I am trying the wing ide in windows 2000
I like the fixedsys font while I programming, but I can not
find it in
wingide font list.
I am sure the font is installed in my OS

with kind regards

I think fixedsys is a bitmap font, which Wing is unable to
use because 
gtk+ on Windows doesn't support bitmap fonts.  You may want
to try 
another monospace font.

Cheers,

John

On that note, may I suggest trying the Terminus font?

It's a monospaced font for people who use computers  for 8+
hours a day (read: 
programmers).  I use it for Wing, my terminals, Kate, IRC,
pretty much 
everywhere that wants a monospaced font.  It's *much* easier
on the eyes than 
anything else I've used.
