Calc-U-Later is a free monospaced font designed to mimic the display of Casio CG-xx and TI 92/Nspire calculator. This font has lots of characters and glyphs. This font supports many languages. This font is related to Bluskale and Acorn Full Nostalgia. Sincerely made by MetrikEnzyme.

α6.2.2 Version! Still in progress!

5 x 7 font in scanlines style.

Painstakingly redone from movie screenshots.

Characters guessed: b j q x z " ! @ _ $ + ; [ \ ] ` ~

The ^ caret character is an upward pointing arrow, and is shown in the movie. This is correct based on the old ASCII-1963 standard, where ^ and _ were an upward and leftward pointing arrow, respectively.

I don't believe this font actually matches any specific contemporary terminal from the mid 70s to early 80s, I believe it was done custom for the movie. It is clearly inspired by the character set from several terminals.

One notable feature of the font (shared with several CRT terminals in the 1970s and 1980s) is that no more than 8 adjacent vertical rows within the 7*x10 character cell can be active at any given point. The 'block cursor' violates this, but the circuitry to display that was separate from the circuitry to read the character ROM and shift it vertically.

* Technically the character is 8 pixels wide, but if the 8th/leftmost pixel is set, it will apparently also appear as the rightmost '9th' pixel in the inter-character column, which is undesirable.This can be seen in the custom character set in the movie used for the country outlines during the "UNITED STATES" "SOVIET UNION" "WHICH SIDE DO YOU WANT?" scene. (Either that, or this was an accidental error during creation of those custom characters for the movie.)

The movie also often uses an "overline" character in order to underline the row above, and this occupies an entire row of characters on screen when this happens. Is this the true 'shape' of the underline character?

The final "Terminal" font style!

This font only appears in Notepad, MS Paint and nowhere else, so replicating it might be a good idea.

The most amazing thing about this font is that it changes its style depending on the chosen font size. "More Latin" (possibly) coming soon.

This time with More Latin characters! Fixed height issues as well.

Also used as dialogue text in Undertale and Deltarune.

Finally done. Phew! It took two days to make this. This is a full collection of 5×7 Dot Matrix characters as seen on many devices, like Texas Instruments calculators. A lot of these are custom. Sources include TI-83, TI-86, TI-89, Casio Monochrome Graphing Calculators, Casio fx-115ES PLUS, and the rest, I created them myself. I included fractions for those themes on Microsoft Office don't have matching "1/3" and other fractions with the "1/4", "1/2", and "3/4". The fullwidth characters are substitutes for the other characters in the regular style, such as the math "x" and "y" from Casio.

Please note that character sets like Arabic and some Math Operators are beyond 5×7 pixels. If you want to know why? Because Arabic is very big and if I put it all in 5×7 pixels, the text will look weird, won't really fit inside, and there would be no point to it. I left it as is. Roman Numerals cannot fit if you were doing the "VIII" character, for example.

Enjoy!

Glyphs: 1579

8/28/2019: Font created.
1/7/2020: Added characters in the following form: Fullwidth and Halfwidth are used for making TI-73 Explorer characters, plus actual monospace setting characters. Note that Runic, Tagalog, and Hanunoo are replaced with character variants. The last variation of a character is from Minecraft's font. The fractions are also changed to level the line spacing. The wide "M" is never ever for use on Monospacing.
1/8/2020: More variations are added, extended to replace Buhid. I also added other math symbols and more. To type x̄, press unicode shortcut and type 01b2. To type ȳ, press unicode shortcut and type 01b3. I also added over a hundred, or two hundred, more characters to stock up on the font. Oh and I changed the filters to separate the pixels for a more pixel and retro look. Also fixed the spacing on the "Щ" character.

9/8/2020: Added a bunch of more characters to the font set.

Note that this font is work in progress so you will recieve updates here.

Wanna download this? Too bad, it's under development. For now, it's mine only. When it gets finished, it will be available to all under the Share-Alike license.

Some glyphs are different from others: The High Private Surrogate Area has fictional currency, PlayStation/XBOX controller button symbols, my logo and its extensions, programmer's calculator mode symbols and supposed drive letters and subdrive letters for my enjoyment, but just ignore it. The REPLACEMENT CHARACTER says "nope" in all caps (not mope) instead of the usual square or question mark. The FI and FL ligatures have the F supposedly italicized, but the FF one is normal. The ST ligature has no curl, but the top bar of the letter S is connected to the middle bar in the letter T.

The Box Drawings section has been incomplete because the Box Drawings section has been ported to another version of this font.

A very blocky font. I can't see this being used widely, but if you use this, just give attribution to me, and link back to my fontstruct page.

A typeface designed to be ideal for coding applications. This typeface aims to be a simple pixel font that can both easily be read at small sizes and also look classy at the same time. Each character is designed to have its own unique shape to avoid confusing one character with another (something I found to be a common issue with most pixel fonts).
