@Python Master: I've got UTF-8 handled, so the next version should give you even more possibilities . (There's a few box drawing characters, since the font is basically IBM's venerable VGA font).

With a bit of tinkering, one *might* also be able to use Unscii, since it ships an 8x8 version in Unifont's hex format, which I *think* basically matches the C structures I'm using.

EDIT: Yes, it does, it just needs some massaging to format it as an actual C array, but the actual data is in the same format .

EDITē: Okay, make that "almost" the same format. I'm rendering glyphs mirrored on the vertical axis at the end of my experiment... (Or mirrored on the horizontal axis with a bit of tweaking)... Or I can do a 90° angle with a code tweak... .
Because of course I initially did my manual test on the single glyph 'A', which happens to be symmetrical... .

Maths is hard. >_<".
