boxdraw-legacycomputing
=======================
-Summary
--------
-Extends the boxdraw patch to render Unicode Symbols for Legacy Computing
-(sextants and eighth-block/edge stripes) without font-dependent gaps.
-
-Example
--------
-Sextants from VTE's [boxes.txt](
https://github.com/GNOME/vte/blob/master/doc/boxes.txt) test page. Left is without the patch, right is with it:

Description

+The [boxdraw](
https://st.suckless.org/patches/boxdraw/) patch renders lines, blocks, and braille
characters (U+2500 - U+259F, U+28XX) directly instead of relying on font
-glyphs, so they align perfectly regardless of font, size, or scaling.

+This patch extends the same rendering approach to parts of the "Symbols
for Legacy Computing" block (U+1FB00 - U+1FB8B):
-* Sextants - 2x3 grids of filled cells (U+1FB00 - U+1FB3B)
-* Eighth-column / eighth-row stripes (U+1FB70 - U+1FB7B)
-* Mixed-axis edge stripes (U+1FB7C - U+1FB81)
-* The cumulative-eighths codepoints that fill the gaps left by the
- U+2500 block's own half/full-eighth blocks (U+1FB82 - U+1FB8B)
+- Sextants - 2x3 grids of filled cells (U+1FB00 - U+1FB3B)
+- Eighth-column/eighth-row stripes (U+1FB70 - U+1FB7B)
+- Mixed-axis edge stripes (U+1FB7C - U+1FB81)
+- Cumulative eighths that fill the gaps left by the U+2500 block's
+existing half/full-eighth blocks (U+1FB82 - U+1FB8B)
Wedges, shades, diagonals, and the pictographic symbols later in the
Legacy Computing block are not covered by this patch and are left to
font fallback.
-Notes
------
-* This patch is based on the boxdraw patch; i.e. it is to be applied
- after applying boxdraw.
-* It reuses boxdraw's existing `boxdraw` config.h toggle - no separate
- option is added.
-* The download is a `git format-patch` file. It can be applied either
- with `git am ...`, or with `patch -p1 < ...`.
