Er, not the desktop.

The *text console*.

In short, I'm running neither X nor Aqua.  I just have a prompt that says

        Darwin (bravo.example.com) (console)

        login: zach

        Welcome to Darwin!
        You are using bash.
        bravo:~ zach$ _

But it doesn't say it in the font my mail client uses; it uses it in a font
compiled into the kernel somewhere.  And I want a picture of that.

I'm getting here by entering ">console" as a username to loginwindow.app.  It
then reactivates the pseudo-text-mode console driver (I assume it's really
a framebuffer with a lot of text-scribbling code) and runs getty.
