If it is really a chess font, they can just use the glyphs for the chess variety also as the "plain" (terminal emulator variety), and it would not matter (as long as no-one insist on using it for terminal emulation). All that is needed for that is a manoeuvre to copy a few glyphs within the font (when creating the font). I guess that is not very hard... /Kent K >> On 6 Apr 2017, at 01:31, Kent Karlsson <kent.karlsso...@telia.com> wrote: >> >> >> Exactly. >> >> /K >> >> Den 2017-04-06 01:25, skrev "Michael Everson" <ever...@evertype.com>: >> >>> 2581 FE00; Chessboard box drawing; # LOWER ONE EIGHTH BLOCK >>> 258F FE00; Chessboard box drawing; # LEFT ONE EIGHTH BLOCK >>> 2594 FE00; Chessboard box drawing; # UPPER ONE EIGHTH BLOCK >>> 2595 FE00; Chessboard box drawing; # RIGHT ONE EIGHTH BLOCK >>> 2596 FE00; Chessboard box drawing; # QUADRANT LOWER LEFT >>> 2597 FE00; Chessboard box drawing; # QUADRANT LOWER RIGHT >>> 2598 FE00; Chessboard box drawing; # QUADRANT UPPER LEFT >>> 259D FE00; Chessboard box drawing; # QUADRANT UPPER RIGHT >>> >>> I guess I see your point.
