Looks great! It’s giving me some Sun Gallant Demi vibes (

My first job, between high school and university, was at a bus company, helping with scheduling and timetabling, in the mid 90s. Me, teenage geek... with a Sparc 5 on my desk.

Which terminal are you using that supports variable length fonts this well?

Looks like 9term, the Plan 9 terminal emulator.
