ok this might be a zany ass idea but... what if... 320x200 but with 2 pixel tall dither as a stylistic choice? eh? eh? eh? :D

wake up babe new font just dropped

look ma, no text jumping*!

*in my wordwrapped typewriter text

i have 3 iterative functions here:

1. gets the next word (spaces/newlines count as a 1 character "word")
2. wraps words iteratively, recording width, max width, and height
3. uses the wrapping function to get the next word, then draws it 1 character at a time

it's quite a clean implementation

btw my font format for this project is *incredibly* sophisticated
@eniko I saw this in my favourites and now I’m wondering what the first 5 lines are, guessing a header something like:
- magic/version?
- baseline
- line height
- character width
- number of characters
@bnut Vertical advance between lines (line height)
Spacing between characters
Character height
Space width
Number of characters
@eniko ah, so close, and I guessed the first but came back here to update my guess only to see I was too late
