and that was the original attribution, whereas
the latest Bernecky's distribution lists Joe Tuttle
as original author.

So is this font SAXPSA the one that DoA is done in?
It's close on the one hand, but I cannot give it a 100%.

I believe that Steve replaced the American Typewriter
Light Italic with slanted Courier. If so, this is very
obviously different from the SAX font. However, the sample
of the DoA that I got the other day also showed that it
used the symbols out of SAX APL font - but not the italic
letters...

These things are a matter of personal taste, but clearly
people have strong feelings about "what is right" ...
