I prepared each size independently. The zip file includes three of them.
To build more, it is needed to prepare more bmp files. As I said before,
I took the bits from the display from a text editor and added the marks
to find the glyphs by hand with a graphics editor.
In a few days I'll brew some more, but everybody is invited to do
whichever they like, and share them for others to use. I.e. anybody can
help!
Cheers,
Juan Vuletich
