--- Comment #12 from Anastasius Focht  ---
Hello folks,

dupe of bug 20456 (Wine-Staging provides a 'Courier New' replacement) - even if
this bug is older, that one has better coverage.

You can also work around without 'winetricks' by just going to 'Options' ->
'Appearance' -> default selection 'Font' -> 'Change' and chose *any* font
listed ('Courier', ...) to get a proper editor/font rendering.
Or use Wine-Staging which has replacement font builtin.

App source 'SOURCE/IDE/FASMW.ASM':
