I use a crossbar with the 7, an upstroke with the 1, a plain I without serifs (and without a dot), a distinctively smaller i with a dot, and an l that has a hook to the right at the bottom. Did I mention that I never understood how Courier (New) could become such a standard in computing? Try to keep an l and a 1 apart in a normal reading size on a normal screen in that font... :) > Slashing the 0 (zero) keeps it different from the letter O, but there > seem to be more schemes for those two.

I don't think that this guy is part of a group that would qualify to call this a "scheme" :) Gerhard ____________________________________________________________ You are subscribed to the PEDA discussion forum To Post messages: mailto:[email protected] Unsubscribe and Other Options: http://techservinc.com/mailman/listinfo/peda_techservinc.com Browse or Search Old Archives (2001-2004): http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] Browse or Search Current Archives (2004-Current): http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]
