Where does the design for the text characters come from? Is it based on a mono font you find readable?

- _piud 1y agoMyna's predecessor was a customised version of Source Code Pro. but i've changed a lot of glyphs by borrowing designs and modifying glyphs. so, it may not look like it at all now.
- rbanffy 1y agoMy own font took on the blockyness of the IBM 3270 terminals. Now it has a ton of glyphs those terminals never had, but I tried to remain faithful to its original design principles. Not everyone likes it, but I do.
- _piud 1y agoi totally get what you mean. i've not been faithful to the original design of Source Code Pro or even Fira Mono or Ubuntu Mono (from which i also derived a lot) but do try to stick to a simple geometrical ideal with only a few exceptions.
