A medium-weight, proportional octagonal text font. It is similar in some respects to LegibusRexMono; however, many of the glyphs have been completely redesigned because this font has larger proportions and is not monospaced.

I like this version muuuuch better. I would only fix the tildes—make them wider. Plus, the solo tilde character is generally used for other purposes and is usually centered, i.e., with the hyphen, as well as being much larger.

@sarreyn: I'm grateful for your kind words and the suggestions concerning the tildes. I have widened them as you recommended, and I have also revised the middle section to provide a more pleasing shape. As for not centering the solo tilde, that was a careless error on my part. I have fixed the problem and enlarged the glyph as well. I hope you approve of the changes. Thanks again for your support and assistance!

That looks a great deal better. As for the solo tilde—it can also be placed at the same height as the lowercase tildes. The only other thing that I would change/fix would be the degree sign—I would make it smaller, like about the same size as your å ring. And, since it's hard to tell, I wolud make the left leg of mu's (µ) descender the same as the g and j.

@sarreyn: I have now lengthened mu's descender per your suggestion. For the degree sign, I think the å ring is a bit too tiny, so I increased its size by one block in each direction. Once again, I appreciate your efforts to help me polish this font.
