I get a lot of spam that manages to bypass spam filters by relying on graphical similarities of letter glyphs and using different code points. If your target audience are humans instead of spam filters, it makes sense paying attention to such details. -- David Kastrup

In this case the problem seems the font used rather than in the naming.

I called an early utility of mine "Preview-LaTeX" and realized with the first vanity searches that web search engines generally ignore case. And that I was not exactly entering an empty search space. Well, I've dropped the capitalization since then, and clearly by now that tool (that ended up quite elaborate partly due to a host of contributors) dominates the search space. But "is this a good idea?" is something people should really consider when coining terms that other people will have to use as a reference. -- David Kastrup

I have no issues when I Google it. Did you search for tlasm or t1asm? Kevin On Wed 7 Sept 2022, 09:51 Andrew Bernard, wrote: > I cant find out what tlasm is.

Oh dear. It's t-one-asm, not t-ell-asm. Sorry for the noise. On 7/09/2022 6:19 pm, Andrew Bernard wrote: I cant find out what tlasm is. It's a missing dependency for the build.

I cant find out what tlasm is. It's a missing dependency for the build. Google's indexing of billions of pages produces nothing, unless I am dreaming.
