Thanks, Ray!

I just added an oblique variant to the Github repo, along with SFD file and specimen. Since I'm doing the work in Fontforge, it won't be on the FontStruct site.

It doesn't seem as if anyone has ever done a TrueType version of the Lisa system font, so... I did. More or less. I couldn't find a full specimen sheet of the font, so I kind of winged it in a lot of places, but this first version covers the Latin-1 character set. I expect to use it in ALyX as well. The first link is the public download link at FontStruct, while the second is a bit more of a complete distribution including an SFD version for FontForge and a font specimen in PNG format.

Speaking of which... the project had stalled because of a lack of processing power in the Raspberry Pi B+, and I had seriously considered ditching it for a BeagleBone Black. However, the Raspberry Pi 2 B received a significant speed bump (900MHz vs 700, quad Cortex-core) and while the Lisaem mouse emulation still drags, it's actually usable now. I now have what I suppose could be called a prototype with the RPi 2 connected to a 720p TV, with the board drawing power from the TV's USB port. 

Keeping it on the RPi platform is pretty significant; since the RPi has no onboard storage, only a MicroSD slot, it's possible to install Raspbian, add on the emulators and devtools, and just image the whole for download. The lash shell is still unfinished, but I can get back to that soon.
