Hi. Thanks for the fonts. I understand you may not officially support Windows, but marking the fonts as Monospace in PANOSE is easy and important for Windows users. Many application (such as Visual Studio) relies on the value to switch behavior.

The PANOSE number is located in the OS/2 table, offset 0x20. You need to update the 4-th byte (Proportion) from currently 0x00 to 0x09. Also, don't forget to update OS/2 table's checksum (by increasing 9 to the integer).

Alternatively, I can send you the changed files, or allow me to commit directly to the repo. It is up to you.

What do you think?
