i find these fonts hard to read.

i've been using code2000 converted by ttf2subf. the results are not perfect,
but it looks pretty good to me. also it has better coverage. it's so annoying to
pjb faces instead of someone's name. even if it is spam.

does anyone know why a greyscale font will become monochrome
when redrawn. on p9p this is evident after <esc> <esc>?
