I'm just wondering if anyone has the old VT100 / VT102 system fonts that were used for coding back in the day. Everywhere I look says they were OS9 fonts, but I'd like to load it on my MacPro.
I'm doing a video project where I need that old, aliased font. Specifically, I'm trying to find an exact match for this font and I think VT100 would get me awfully close ...

That is correct. OS 9 supplied a legacy Mac TrueType font named VT102Font . These still do work in all versions of OS X. So if you have a copy of OS 9 around, or an older Mac running OS 9, you can copy the font to your new Mac.
True ... I suppose I was hoping for a friendly, generous forum user that might have it available. I can't find OS9 stuff anywhere, and all my internet searches for the font have come up nil. 😟
