An italic segment font, how unusual. I like your idea of glyphs where the segments seem to be missing.

An interesting italic design - I can just see it 'lit up' in red or green.

The letter spacing needs a bit of tidying up though.

The way I thought about this font - it's about how you would get the alphabet to display on a seven-segment display. So a lot of compromises have to be made, where 'K' = 'X' or 'U' = 'V' for example, and the only "cheat" that can be employed is repeating glyphs. I used that for 'M' and 'W,' which from the programming side would simply be two 'N's or 'V's but I made it automatic for convenience's sake.

Thanks for your comments!

And everything besides the period, comma, and colon (the only other segments you ever see on a segmented display like this) are actually monospaced!
