Maybe I'm overly pragmatic, but the only generic font I see is one that handle bezier curves directly. I.e., graphics mode. I would not want to try how to figure out such a complex glyph with a Tinkerfont, but provide a .gif file. Is this too pragmatic?? :-) Anyway, as everyone with a monospaced font can see: ASCII art is like tinkerfont as well. :-) **Henrik
