 # A minimum sized 6x6 font originally developped for 320x200 graphics as part
 # of a custom widget kit to go with a custom block editor, BEditor.
 # There was another smaller 4x6 font as part of BEditor.

 # For use with uppercase mode (atupper) although lowercase characters are
 # already mapped to uppercase ones by this definition.
 # Despite the serious constraints an effort was done to also support lowercase
 # characters.  The original font only supported uppercase.
+# For text flow to be consistent, some glyphs have evolved into "photographic"
+# zoomed-down version of themselves where lines that would normally
+# interleaved now touch eachother.  Because there is little room for lowercase
+# ascenders and descenders, many letters are fitted into 4x4.  Because the
+# restricted space doesn't really permit room for accents, it was difficult to
+# get the abnormally short lowercase "i" right.  Any horizontal serif attempt
+# to more evenly fill the box horizontally immediately reveals that the
+# vertical bar is too short.  As there is little room to get proper looking
+# "f" and "t" glyphs, their horizontal bars do not align, similarly with the
+# "4" glyph and the center horizontal bar of "8".
 #
 # In wide mode (-W) with -g7x6 -l3 (or -g7x9) and a bright mode (i.e.
 # atintbright2), this appears to become acceptable for lowercase characters.
