FixedSys was originally commissioned by Microsoft for Windows as a bitmap only font in the FON format. It is the oldest font in Windows, and was the system font in Windows 1.0 and 2.0, where it was simply named "System". For Windows 3.x, the system font was changed to a proportional sans-serif font named System, but Fixedsys remained the default font in Notepad. Fixedsys and Chicago (the default system typeface on the Apple Macintosh between 1984 and 1997) are vaguely similar---the key difference is that Chicago is a proportional typeface while Fixedsys is monospaced. Around 1998 Travis Owens took the bitmaps and recreated the font (US characters only) into a TrueTypeFont and put it on the internet. After that, others continued Travis's work and started adding non-US symbols to it so they could use it for their applications (mostly in mIRC and Java coders for their editors). These people include Markus Gebhard, who also created a truetype version and was in charge of the font until version 4. From version 5 on, Lars Naber was in charge. Free download of Fixedsys.
