The Ramps

The things that I'm interested in up there in the Legacy Computing block are the "ramps". These guys:

And these:

It's these codepoints that represent much more than a finite array of pixels, and thus provide much more bang for their bit than their quadrant/sextant/octant counterparts. These are simple-but-resolution-independent abstract geometric figures that can be combined with the old blocks, half-blocks, and sextants into interesting shapes with smooth...ish contours...

If only ...there weren't problems. Like ...there's a very good chance that those test graphics up there look like total ass, things aren't lining-up, and you're thoroughly underwhelmed by the experience.

You're not alone.
