Hey Aino, all this stuff I wrote abt typography was never meant as demand or the like, just so that you can find some info & help on making type look fine, in case you’d want to tweak it.

Like, for the kerning to become superfluous, you could, for example, “simply” (?) make the letters “G” , “I” (here the nice serifs you already made) and “J” somewhat broader, so that they’d run as broad as the other letters.

Peace, Tom

Yea, considered it... But I think it will just look lame IMO, I don't have that much against it being like so... It is easy to fix though :P

How d’you mean? And what do you mean by “CC”? And … wbt perhaps inventing your own new character since you draw them and needn’t take from ASCII or Unicode?

BTW, you can sign in for beta testing to see how it is before the public release :)

Thanks, Aino, in case you meant me: I currently don’t have the brains and time to start up my virtual Windows machine and play <shrug> hopefully some time later this year.

I think >> is used as the Mainland European equivalent to ", but I am not certain. I'm fairly sure the French use it.
