Fonts?

I'm not sure its possible but reading about all the language stuff, I was wondering if its possible to change the font that is displayed in Celestia?

Well, searching the forum for the word 'font' should answer this question.

For example you would find this thread which directs you to this utility. Reading the comments in the celestia.cfg configuration file might give you some hints too.

All well and good, but I don't have a compiler, and Borland C++ won't cut it according to the threads...so is there an already compiled version out there?

Well, now you can use this interface to generate a font texture from a ttf file.

Awesome! It'd be even nicer if I could specify which Unicode codepoints to include, but for latin encodings
this is great.

Ok, ok. Now you can provide your own codepoints file. The default is still wgl4.
