Msg: Re: No more vDos worlds left to conquer

I'm definitely going to have to search around here (on old Zip Drive cartridges, or wherever) for that TinyFont thing that I mentioned. It was kind of like the smaller text sample on that wheel the optometrist has you look at. I don't know whether it was monospaced, or otherwise adaptable, but if so it might have been something that lent itself to a "squared" notation, or the descending 2 in H2O, particularly if other font letters will appear much larger next to it. These are very minor requests, but it might be nice to have a temperature "degrees" symbol too.

I never delved much into the higher ASCII # symbols that were available in some of the Speedo fonts -- like the Copyright symbol ? -- that may have covered some of this.

Wengier,

Sounds very cool. But if you can do super and sub, that implies, doesn't
it, that you could do small, because these are smaller.

Then I could have my comments, on my programs, show up in a smaller font.

Harry
