A new typeface – greater legibility and readability for low vision readers
Atkinson Hyperlegible font is named after Braille Institute founder, J. Robert Atkinson. What makes it different from traditional typography design is that it focuses on letterform distinction to increase character recognition, ultimately improving readability. We are making it free for anyone to use!
Every designer has their own preferred set of go-to fonts, a dependable set of serifs and sans-serifs that'll cover most eventualities. But every now and then you find yourself in need of something a little out of the ordinary, a really weird but eye-catching font that you can use sparingly to grab people's attention.
When you're in need of a weird font, you're not always sure exactly what you're looking for; it's the sort of thing that you'll only recognise when you see it. So to help you out, we've gathered together 10 of our favourite weird and unusual fonts for you to download for free today (see more of our favourite free fonts here). All of them are free to use for personal work, and some of them can be used commercially too.

This is a perl extension for rxvt-unicode that allows changing the font size on the fly with keyboard shortcuts. It has the following features:
Supports both xft and X11 fonts; X11 fonts work in both full form and as aliases.
Supports all four font settings: font, boldFont, italicFont and boldItalicFont and changes them in accordance with the base font (the first one from font).
Can apply the font change globally for the whole server, so that new terminals will inherit the same size, and even save it to ~/.Xresources to be able to survive a reboot.
Should work even with complicated font setups like the example in the urxvt man-page.
