Hi, I am writing a contour plotter that will run on ascii terminals. I was wondering if someone could provide me with a sequence of standard printable ascii characters which range from least `dense' to most `dense'. By `dense' I mean the amount of pixels the character uses. For example, the space character would be the least dense followed by a `.' etc.. all the way up to `@' or perhaps even `#'. I know this probably depends on the particular device (font) but I am sure there are some general `rules' (eg. `@' > `.').
