Dear Mr. Boivin,

  You're right, the list of OEM fonts displayed in the editor options dialog seems to be incorrect. I'm not entirely 
sure about the Courier New font, but there are other fonts which I'd definitely expect to be included in the list.
Lucida Console comes to mind, for example. This font is usable in the console and hence should be in the list.

This needs to be looked into.

Hi

I update to release 560 and the list of OEM fonts is still limited to
two fonts.

Hi Mr Boivin,

This is correct. The corresponding implementation did not make it to
the current update. The fix is scheduled for the next one.

Hope this helps.

With my best regards,

I see no change with .570 

Hello Mr Boivin,

I feel terribly sorry about that. Allthough the required implementation was
started we have been forced to temporarily pause all activities because it
turned out the fix will risk availability.

Hi

Just a reminder, still waiting for this!
