Hi Joram,
Thanks for the helpful response!

Very nice — thanks for doing that.

Excellent.
I would like to implement kerning, if possible.
Otherwise, I felt like I had found good basic sizes, relations, and spacing — glad \
to hear you agree!

ERROR! =)
Thanks for catching that; I will fix it immediately.

Once a complete B&R example is done, I will be seeing how many of the elements can be \
parameterized. Certainly, the minor indicator would be one (and one of the easier \
ones, at that). Stay tuned.

My pleasure. Thanks for the feedback.
Best,
Kieren.
