    See the problem with this is that even if I write code with this font, I can’t force people to read it in this font.

      Of course you can. Instead of committing the code to a repository, you just take screenshots of the everything and commit that instead.

          And then you program a runtime that calls an AI to parse images and execute your code in real-time!

              Did they use sane or Windows-style newlines? Windows-style line endings are not supported everywhere.

              Edit:
              Variable-width handwriting is no longer considered a best practice and has been deprecated for some time. If the program did not compile with sane line endings, try rewriting the program in monospace, as support for legacy handwriting styles may have been dropped from non-LTS compiler releases.

            Oh, so that’s what those Python notebooks are that I’ve heard people talk about!

            Well, it’s not quite that bad, but it takes a special kind of person to send their very obviously visually impaired coworker screenshots instead of plaintext. And I know a few of them.

      You can if you paste it into a write protected pdf

        The only real way to write protect it is by printing the pdf into pdf (making it a pdf of an image).

          I wonder if this font would screw up ocr?

            Unless the OCR were made for this font, probably yes.

        And then maybe you could use something like #define in C to map them back to valid characters? Not sure if there’s a good way to do that in other higher level languages.

          You could always write your own program that runs before the compiler. Simple character replace for those unicodes to ascii

      Yes. The “problem”.

      Many editors can read config files from a file in the repository itself. And oftentimes it has the highest priority. Just gotta know the IDE of your target and they have to click “trust this project”.

        Just add it for VSCode and Jetbrains and you cover like 75-95% of devs
