I tried to compose some glyphs for my current conscript but there are still
many problems I have to fix.
More, I'll be in the train to Charleroi in less than 2 hours and I'll be
back home at 22 or perhaps 23 o'clock CEST.
Tomorrow I'll be away from 7:30 to 23 o'clock and I don't have a laptop
computer.
So you'll have to wait a few days if you want a heavier version of the
fonts.
But there's no copyright on those fonts, therefore anyone may modify them
and even make them available on the web.

I intend to make a new font (a Unicode font) with a 36 cells high matrix and
many curves - I'll put all those character pieces in the private use area
and I'll make a Keyman driver to type them easily.
