Hmmm? Anti-aliased ascii art does not have to be computer
generated.

  And don't forget all the ways to represent those letters.

    capital   open      closed
              small     small
     ,ooo, 
    d"    
    O   ,=     ,oo,"     ,oo,"
    q    H    d"  "b    d"  "b
    `"***T    "LooJP    "LooJP
                   H     .oo,)
              "ooo"'     "oo"

  Plus finer distinctions like serif verus san-serif, and larger
  distinctions like script (which I don't want to draw out now).
