2019/01/15: Hermit v2.0
- Major version, lots of changes! This version was done usingn Glyphs App instead of FontForge. However, an UFO file is exported, so Hermit can still be edited with several tools.
- Added a lot of mark+letter glyphs... Hermit should cover most european languages!
- Medium version was renamed to Regular.
- Added a propper Bold version, made by hand with love. It is now consistent with the Regular version, and thus actually monospaced.
- The Light version was not made by hand, but interpolated (extrapolated?) from the other two versions. It should work a lot better now.
- Added an Italic version (Regular, Bold and Light weights), consistent with the rest of the versions. Thanks, kul!
- Marked as monospaced (isFixedPitch). Thanks, Tidux!
- Every glyph was individually revised and, in some cases, hinted and adjusted to be more clear.
- Completely redesigned 't' and 'f'. They are now simpler, more Hermit-like, and they render better on smaller sizes. I know this is a change a lot of people won't like, but remember: Hermit is open source and free as in "freedom", so you can change it back if you wish!
- Added '₿' symbol (Bitcoin, U+20BF). Thanks, JasonLeeH!
- Added '✓' symbol (Checkmark, U+2713). Thanks, Evan!
- Font width is now 618, so glyphs have an actual half. I sincerely don't remember why it was 617, which is a prime number (maybe just because of that, that seems like me. Also, 617 is part of a twin prime pair with 619, and may be expressed as a sum of 2 squares: 16² + 19². But 618 is also cool. I guess...).
