My recent work on Bot Mono began with Deja Vu, which includes a huge array of extra signs and languages. Of course I can remove individual glyphs by deleting them. But how do I remove whole sets of languages, or extra arrays of special characters?
My second question is about which sets I should include. Latin is a natural choice, as well as the basic arrays of Baltic languages and Greek. But this is a font for code, for programming and the computer shell. I understand there is no such thing as “one standard set of characters” — you can make your font as large or small you want. What I’m looking for is a good common ground, a set that would be useful in daily work (coding) with non-asian, non-african, European languages.
