Description : Very small 4 x 8 font
This is named atari small because it was designed for a terminal
emulator I
wrote for my Atari 800. It only had a 320 pixel wide display, but I
wanted an
80 column terminal, hence we have a 4x8 font. This is somewhat cleaned
up
from the original version. It has only a 1 pixel descent to maximize
pixels
available to the main body of each character.
Notes: I have created a fontforge sfd version which one can generate
otf/ttf
out of. If anyone knows how to limit the fontsize to 8 only for a
otf/ttf font, please
contact me. (The original font is in bdf format)
