Also in the terminal there isn't the space between the lines for the parent either (that's just HN formatting), but there is a space when using \ or /
- zaf 9y agoThat's because of HN formatting.
- icc97 9y agoIt's because u'\u2571' is a different character from chr(92)
- rubenbe 9y agoThe C64 font is (almost?) square, this also contributes to the nice effect.
- rothron 9y agoIt's square as it's 8x8 pixels, but the pixels themselves are not. There's a difference in aspect ratio between PAL and NTSC variants, and because the C64 was usually connected to a CRT, pretty much all bets are off.
