Re: [pygame] bugs in sysfont.py (pygame 1.6 and 1.7)

Hey,

thanks for the testing, and the patch.

I've applied your patches to cvs, and they will be in the next rc release.  

I'm not sure how to get the different faces working either.  A fix for
that will have to come after this release.

Did pygame 1.7.1rcX work ok for you with win98?


Cheers.
