Everyone seems to mention those but no-one takes care of
distinguishing : from ; or distinguishing ( from { or ) from } or |
from l or B from 8. The last one is my personal enemy since I've
confused the hex number 9B with 98 and was quite embarrassed from
that. That was the last straw for me in using bad fonts, and in a few
months after that I've made a good font for myself to use. (Now I'll
just have to draw a larger version of it before I buy a bigger CRT.
Though on second thought the bigger ones don't actually have a higher
resolution per dimension than the small ones so maybe I won't need
that.)
