and it "just worked".

I put mine in ~/.fonts/ and again it "just worked". Sweet. And
~/.fonts means you can use it as the default font in Firefox. Not as
sweet, though ;-)

The only think I could think of that might be added are
transitions between "group" and low/high.

Yup. Many times signals go between "undefined" and a specific state.
Not much room left to put them in, though. Might have to start
replacing the accented letters.

Please remember This is a Symbol font which means there are fewer codes
available, however the bonus is in word processor documents this type of
font is not supposed to be spell-checked!

Bold would be a bonus. The 1wire spec uses bold/dotted/normal to
distinguish between "master driven", "undriven", and "slave driven".
I suppose we could use colors, though. Or at least shades of grey.

Greyscale is something being considered for future versions, but as
a symbol font might be limited. Colours definitely works.

Bold may be confusing on some symbols (undefined for starters).

Food for thought though.
