Eigil, thank you for making the font, it's beautiful

first time i have to make the donation because you deserve

so i open the issue from your suggestion from the mail

current i interrupts the reading flow

for example

it would be great if we have something like first 2s here (sorry for bad drawing with mouse 😅)

take your time, just a suggestion

Thank you for your kind words. A question: Are you proposing to 1. Make a ligature that substitutes the i for a different i when it appears in combinations like li or ti or 2. Make a global alternate i that doesn't have a left bottom serif for example?

Make a global alternate i that doesn't have a left bottom serif for example?

This one would be better 😄, since it would be weird to see different i at different place/combination (as 1).

eigilnikolajsen commented 11 months ago

Okay, gotcha.

Hello, I tried to add an alternate 'i' with a tail like the 'l'. But it simply didn't look good. Instead I added an alternate 'i' without serifs altogether, which you can try in the latest version from commitmono.com.
