octfont Files

To install a deb version of the octfont software, download the deb version
desired to some folder on your local computer.  The three checksums in the
release readme verify your download is error free.  Open a terminal window by
selecting menu->all applications->system tools->terminal.  Go to the location
where you downloaded the deb version of octfont (e.g., Downloads) by
typing "cd Downloads" in the terminal window.  Typing the following installs
octfont on your system:
	sudo apt install gdebi
	sudo gdebi octfont_1.3.0_amd64.deb
where 1.3.0_amd64 is version_arch for the latest version 1.3.0 and amd64 is
for amd64 architecture machines (most pcs although arch is armhf for raspberry
pi machines).  When you do this, you must be logged in as the primary user on
the system and you must enter the primary user login password when prompted
to do so.

Rel_1.3.0 increases the space below the dot in the letters i & j for both the
oct16 and oct24 fonts and moves the top of the letters p and q down two spaces
in the oct24 font.  This aligns them with the top of other lower case letters.

The font, oct, is a traditional X11 bitmapped font that features narrow
vertical spacing contrary to accepted font design styles.  It allows more
lines in a window and is bold for ease in viewing.  The developer has
happily used this font for a number of decades up to and including 4K displays.
