           Summary: Fixedsys in mIRC only has Regular font weight
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.31
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: FreeBSD
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: cyberbotx at cyberbotx.com


When running mIRC on an actual Windows XP machine and going into it's Font
dialog, it shows Regular, Italic, Bold, and Bold Italic for font weights (it
labels them as Font Style).  However, when mIRC is run under Wine, and the
Fixedsys .fon font files are copied to Wine's Fonts directory from a Windows XP
mahcine, the only font weight shown for Fixedsys is Regular.  I'm not 100% sure
if I have all the .fon files needed for Fixedsys to have the other 3 font
weights, but I do have the following in my Fonts directory currently:

ls ~/.wine/harddiskvolume1/windows/Fonts/
8514fix.fon  85f1257.fon  QT2C_P.TTF   QT2_P.TTF    j8514fix.fon vgafix.fon
8514fixe.fon OCRA2_P.TTF  QT2M_P.TTF   c8514fix.fon jvgafix.fon  vgafixe.fon
8514fixg.fon OCRBMT.TTF   QT2PI_P.TTF  cvgafix.fon  s8514fix.fon vgafixg.fon
8514fixr.fon QT2C_B.TTF   QT2_B.TTF    h8514fix.fon svgafix.fon  vgafixr.fon
8514fixt.fon QT2C_I.TTF   QT2_I.TTF    hvgafix.fon  vgaf1257.fon vgafixt.fon

(Ignore the .ttf files, those are for other fonts that were probably installed
by other applications.)

I was unable to find any other files on a Windows XP installation that had
Fixedsys in it.  As a result of the lack of Bold, any time there is Bold text
sent to mIRC, it fails to render it in Bold and instead renders it in Regular.
