does it at least have £ or more incomplete
please note, these are all minimal character set. none are "complete". just enough to get by, for most uses. the more exotic characters are not in any of them. so sorry if you wanted umlats, chinese characters and so on

pragmatic or whimsy
many of these are both. hard to gauge which camp to put many of them in. some are clearly more whimsy than pragmatic. some, it's a matter of opinion and resolution. in my opinion, the tiny and rly tiny fonts are pragmatic, but i've separated them out here for convenience.
pragmatic
bggf
carpy (can help with dyslexia, weighted)
clso
djsl
jffhlu & jffhle (and incomplete versions)
mergy (and precursor versions)
mnky
mo (if you dont mind the morse above)
nztt (and prior broken versions)
procrastination
qnr
was wash wastage wastest (square)
yz
whimsy
a, ac & aci (just a bit too cartoon wiggly)
djfl (that e... knocks it out of pragmatic)
kob (like klingon or something)
lem (stylish)
mo (morse does above... is that pragmatic?)
rly tiny
bf (the tiniest! b****** f***!)
brf
qnub (uhh... where's qnub gone?)
zfr
tiny
feral & referal
nztt (scalable)
pe & pen
rmnd
tydls
tiptoe

* scoring: 1 point for scalable, quids in, & monospace. 1 for pragmatic + 1 for tiny, just 1 for rly tiny. minor tweaks per case (see carpy & djfl's pragmatic, & merg's tall). scores do not reflect aesthetic preference (whereby, e.g. zfr & mnky rank higher than the score of 2 implies).
