Added two more fonts showing different ways of approaching the same problem. I hope someone can help me find a 20-something segment system so that we have every decade represented! https://aresluna.org/segmented-type/ pic.twitter.com/1JYv7rpwhE

With great help from patent detective @obra, we now have five new experimental segmented fonts that were never produced or very rare, most recreated from patent drawings.
They are REALLY cool.

1. A *six* segment font, made for a *pocket typewriter* 155 years ago. The typewriter had six keys, too – not unlike Braille, you would actually key in segments!pic.twitter.com/ITb7AM8YaE
2. A wild 1896 font meant to be lit by… lamps. Only one letter, M, was in the patent, so I extrapolated all the rest.pic.twitter.com/WNbTPfN5Gm
3. A recent font developed for e-ink displays, sent to me by its authors, Dave Vondle and Nicholas Zambetti.pic.twitter.com/x9E9PWN6BH
This comes from the original spec, but there are indeed many ways to put together a zero.pic.twitter.com/T7W8o4ZGPD
