I have now reached a stage in the development of a font containing authoring-time glyphs for the commands in the paper_draft_005.pdf document that I feel the development stage font is suitable for publication.
The present stage of development of the font includes glyphs for 75 of the commands in the paper_draft_005.pdf document.
They cover the commands for the general program structure, (though not for the commands for defining and using functions or interrupts) together with all of the commands that use only integers, including putpixel and pause.
The 75 characters and some spaces are in the following Unicode Text Document produced from WordPad.
- codepoints_007.txt
- Seventy-five codepoints for plane 15 completed glyphs included in the Quest PIOC 007 font

Opening the file in WordPad and then formatting with the Quest PIOC 007 font at 24 point produces a good display on this PC.
The glyphs for the commands are mapped from U+FA000 Alt 1024000 upward.
The ranges implemented in the font at this stage are U+FA000 Alt 1024000 to U+FA02E Alt 1024046, U+FA030 Alt 1024048 to U+FA03F Alt 1024063, U+FA0FF Alt 1024255 to U+FA10A Alt 1024266. The font includes glyphs showing just the border for all of the other characters used in the portable interpretable object code and for the presently unused codes within the U+FA000 to U+FA0FF range.

Please note that the font is 158 kilobytes in size. This is because it contains all of the glyphs from the Quest text font as well as the additional authoring-time glyphs for the portable interpretable object code.
If producing experimental software using the authoring-time glyphs using WordPad, one saves from WordPad to a Unicode Text Document.
