Description:
A sans serif computer related font inspired by bitmap fonts like Chicago and Charcoal, but it evolved with some of Fontstruct's "Design Limits" in mind:
I left the lower right corner slab of the N to add some rhythm to the "uncrossing" X's slabs (also present in the K), which to my perspective balances the V's impossibility of a straight angle from top to bottom.
I also used a 2x2 grid filter, that I've learned from williaum's a ll e g o r i c a, just to correct some punctuation issues and to make a narrower c. djnippa's Brick Stacker Tutorial also came in handy, THX2uBoth!

My favorite feature: the crossbar in Z,z and 7.

This is my humble tribute to the Woz.

Gee, thx guys!
I learned a lot about foreign glyphs with this one, the first one I extend this much; I checked a lot of complete font sets so I would not end up messing it up.
It was fun AND enlightening!

Very nice. 537 characters!?!? I'm lucky to break 100.
