Dotted zero #445

Open orlp opened 2 years ago

orlp commented 2 years ago

I like it when a font can disambiguate between zero and the capital letter o, but I'm not a huge fan of the slashed zero (in any font). Would it be possible to add a dotted zero variant that can be enabled with an OpenType feature?

I made a quick mockup of roughly what it could look like by copy/pasting in a period glyph in GIMP:

There are even two variants of this, there is the dotted zero and the slitted zero. Slitted zero is like dotted, but it's a small vertical line instead (like a hyphen rotated 90 degrees). You see them sometimes in programming fonts like Input Mono.

Dotted zeros are underrated in my opinion, and it always seems difficult for me to come by fonts that have it, so I would also very much like to see this included with Inter, even if it's an admittedly niche stylistic preference.
