Way back in the DOS days, I could have a command line prompt that contained block characters, such as █ or ▀.
I am trying to create a prompt with colored block characters using AnsiCon on Windows 7.
I have the coloring sorted out, but when I use those characters with any of the fonts available under Properties in the command prompt window (Consolas, Lucida Console, and Raster Fonts), they appear as other special characters.
Is there a font that I can install that supports the block characters using ANSI encoding?

. It would probably be better to use “Extended ASCII” instead.
