In the early Nineties I laid out PC boards with Illustrator. There were no 
user-definable style sheets. To change the width of a trace I had to bring up a 
dialog box that filled the entire screen on a Mac Plus and took over two 
seconds to draw on the screen. Then I had to mouse around to what I wanted to 
change, clicking on boxes, typing in numbers, clicking "OK". This got old very 
quickly. 

I finally got a macro program and used it to do all of the mousing for me. 
LUXURY.

this counter. They look amazing, so consistent and artful. I can tell they all 
bear the same signature, the same designer. Beautiful designs.
I hope someone here grabs this. Neat piece.

There are at least two non-digit structures in the stack, they look like 
crosses or vertical bars with short horizontal segments. In the 2nd and 
about 7th positions.

Must serve as the grids.
