My Terminal Trading Chart is live!

2026-06-10

Terminal Trading Chart in action with ROKU stock 2026-06-13

Finally my 2016 open source project Terminal Trading Chart is live!
…I never thought I’d write those words.

Back in 2016, I started a small experiment:
What if I could visualize buying and selling pressure directly inside a terminal, using nothing but Unicode and ANSI colors?

The idea was simple:

Green on top = buying volume
Red on bottom = selling volume
Thicker glyphs = higher volume
Using only three glyphs: U+2502, U+2503 and U+2588

But life got in the way. The project stayed in a drawer. Unfinished.

Until now.

Thanks to Claude and DeepSeek AI, I was able to finally bring this vision to life. With their help, the code is clean, the logic is solid, and, most importantly, the signals are readable at a single glance.

Today, I’m releasing Terminal Trading Chart as open source.
I never expected to feel emotional about a terminal chart. But seeing those green and red columns light up with real volume data… yes, it moved me.
I’m curious: does it move you too?

GitHub: Terminal Trading Chart
⭐ Star it if you believe in minimalistic, signal-focused tools.

Nure 1.5 out now!

2025-09-26

Looking back at the first release of Nure variable font after years, I immediately felt the need to revisit and refine it.

Its origins are strictly geometric, a choice that has defined its style since the beginning.

In this new version, I introduced changes to improve readability at small sizes, redesigning key letters and adding ligatures to make the text flow more smoothly.

JTI uses Seitu Variable Font

2025-05-27

JTI web site type set in Seitu variable font designed by Fabrizio Schiavi

A website doesn’t need to shout to be heard.

That’s the quiet strength behind JTI.com.
Set in Seitu Variable Font, the typography feels familiar, warm, and effortlessly readable. It brings flow to the paragraphs and a human touch to the message.

The result?
JTI.com no longer feels like a typical corporate site, it feels like a conversation.

PragmataPro 0.9 released!

2025-03-20

— Variable!

This update has taken much longer than anticipated because I’ve been simultaneously working on something revolutionary: PragmataPro Variable!
From now on, thanks to the 8 variable fonts included in the pack, you’ll be able to customize your own PragmataPro.

— The Poetry of Comfort

From this version m M and w W are more expanded in width when meets some letters too extended by design like f i j l r t E F I L with the goal to improve clarity.

— Math is more light

Drawing inspiration from Donald Knuth’s magnificent work on LaTeX fonts, I’ve decided to reduce the weight of all mathematical symbols, creating a more distinct differentiation from the main glyphs.
This revision has also affected coding ligatures and some essential glyphs such as ( ) [ ] { } < > + * / \ % @ | " ' ~ ^ _

— Recognizable Nerd icons in Mono versions

For this version, over 7000 Nerd icons have been modified for the Mono versions to achieve better recognition at small sizes.

— Enhanced visibility for text in brackets

The ability to make text more prominent through the application of a black background with white text, previously available only for tags, has now been extended to any text containing A-Z, a-z and 0-9 characters enclosed in square brackets [ ].
This feature can be activated by enabling the OpenType feature ss15 Stylistic Set 15 Tags [BUG].

— The # TAG and // TAG return

The special design for optional tags proposed earlier is now available by enabling the OpenType feature ss18 Stylistic Set 18 Optional tags.

— PragmataPro Serif enabling

Serif version of A-Z and a-z in U+1D670 – U+1D6A3 sequence can replace Sans default letters enabling ss16 Stylistic Set 16 feature

— Hebrew alphabet redesigned

Since PragmataPro 0.9 the Hebrew glyphs are less decorative and has a more pragmatic-slyle.

— LCD numbers

The ss17 Stylistic Set 17 feature replaces numbers and colons : with LCD-style numerals and colons that maintain consistent weight with the essential glyphs.

— Wi-fi signal strength glyphs + NotaBene and ABAP \_ ligature

Thanks to the suggestions from several users from GitHub, I have added new glyphs that may be useful to many others.
I renew my invitation to contribute to this project’s GitHub repository so that we can create something unique together.

— Other changes:

— all weights: ligatures are disabled in Regex.

— all modularspaced weights: removed Bopomofo glyphs because too narrow, available in Mono weights only.

— all weights: added {| |} ligatures for OCaml at codepoint U+1002DB U+1002C0.

Feel free to contact me directly or notify an issue via Github to improve PragmataPro again and again.
Thank you!

Extreme Condensed Variation

To maximize the font’s versatility, an extreme condensed variation has been added to the Nure™ font family. This new addition opens up a world of design possibilities, allowing for efficient space utilization without compromising legibility. It serves as an ideal solution when limited horizontal space is a factor, without sacrificing the elegance and distinctiveness the Nure™ font is known for. From digital interfaces to headlines, this extreme condensed variation elevates the font’s adaptability while offering a unique visual impact.

Improved Readability

One of the primary objectives of the enhancements made to the Nure™ variable font was to ensure enhanced readability, especially when used at small sizes or for longer texts. Careful attention has been given to refining the proportions of each glyph, making it easier on the eyes and ensuring a comfortable reading experience. The refined letter shapes and improved character spacing further enhance legibility, allowing the font to shine in a wide range of applications, from print to digital media.

In addition to the existing variations, a set of display versions has been specifically designed to cater to more visually striking applications. These versions feature reduced spacing, creating a condensed and tight-knit aesthetic that instantly captivates the eye. Despite the spacing adjustments, readability and clarity remain uncompromised. From eye-catching headlines to impactful signage, these display versions of the Nure™ font are sure to make a lasting impression while effectively conveying the intended message.

PragmataPro Fraktur is completed!

2023-06-21

Under the numerous requests of expansion of the essential set, I finally completed the PragmataPro Fraktur typeface.

I designed numbers, lowercase numbers are default but uppercase ones are available via OpenType feature Lining Figures (lnum).
s lowercase is available also in historical version enabling OpenType feature Historical Forms (hist)
The set includes for the first time, I suppose, the unreleased design for Fraktur alphabets of glyphs like currency symbols (€ $ £ ¢ ¥) the ampersand (&) etc.
I designed all these unseen before glyphs in Fraktur using the priciples used in the Middle Ages: slants of the parts of the outlines (55° and 72°), variable weights of these parts and modular horizontal rhythm.

PragmataPro Fraktur 1.2 2023 OpenType Ligatures

I also designed ligatures to improve the readability and to respect North European tradition.
There are two kind of hyphen, endash, emdash and equal: default ones at 55° and the alternative at 0°, enabling using OpenType Stylistic Set 01 feature (ss01).

How to set up Nure variable font in your browser

2022-08-23

To use Nure variable font, in combination with PragmataPro, as default font in your browser may improve your productivity.

After downloading Nure variable web font put in you user folder,
install Custom Style Script and addon available for the most used browsers for free and put this code in Options page.

@font-face {
    font-family: 'Nure';
    src: url('/Users/(your user folder)/Nure11-VF.woff2') format('woff2-variations'), 
         url('/Users/(your user folder)/Nure11-VF.woff2') format('woff2');}
body, .css-901oao, ._292iotee39Lmt0MkQZ2hPV, a, abbr, address, area, article, aside, audio, b, bdi, bdo, blockquote, br, button, canvas, caption, cite, col, colgroup, command, datalist, dd, del, details, dfn, div, dl, dt, em, embed, fieldset, figcaption, figure, footer, form, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, header, html, i, iframe, img, input, ins, kbd, keygen, label, legend, li, main, map, mark, menu, meter, nav, object, ol, optgroup, option, output, p, param, progress, q, rp, rt, ruby, s, samp, section, select, small, source, span, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, textarea, tfoot, th, thead, time, tr, track, u, ul, var, video, wbr 
{font-family: 'Nure'; font-weight: 300;  font-variation-settings: 'opsz' 18, 'wdth' 80;}

Where font-weight is the first axis ‘Weight‘, its values starts from 100 to 900,
font-variation-settings: 'opsz' is the second axis ‘Optical Size‘, its values starts from 12 to 72
font-variation-settings: 'wdth' is the third axis ‘Width‘, its values starts from 75 to 125, according with Windows standards.

Changing these values you can find your perfect set up.

A visual example using Hacker News as test site:

Hacker News website Default view. Custom Style Script add on OFF — Actual view. Custom Style Script add on OFF

Hacker News website Default view. Custom Style Script ON setting in Nure variable font — Custom Style Script ON with this settings:
{font-family: ‘Nure’; font-weight: 300; font-variation-settings: ‘opsz’ 20, ‘wdth’ 90;}

Nure variable font combined with PragmataPro monospaced font in Mozilla Firefox — Nure combined with PragmataPro in Mozilla Firefox

This is just a quick view of the potential of using a variable font like Nure as default font.

PragmataPro 0.826 Ligatures in mono version? Why not!

2017-08-18

After many requests, I decided to change the font files structure of PragmataPro:

The PragmataPro complete pack includes two folders: Fonts with ligatures and Fonts without ligatures
Both folders includes two kind of fonts grouped as Modularspaced and Monospaced.

The goal is to fit the need to have Modularspaced fonts without ligatures, Monospaced fonts with ligatures.
Two situations impossible to get before.

— New ligatures for R language and C#

Now the entire set of ligatures has reached 177 for every weight (Regular, Bold, Italic and Bold Italic)!

— Harmonized APL symbols

Thanks to the help of abrudz now PragmataPro has more consistent APL symbols

— Minor improvements:

— Regular and Italic: improved the TrueType hinting

— all weights: ligatures are now more compatible with IDEs like IntelliJ IDEA

The design of the curly quotes are changed to be more recognizable in texts.
Question mark, and its derived glyphs, are now more condensed and inspired to the design of the traditional serif typefaces.
Abitare Sans now has a more sharp geometric outline.

PragmataPro 0.822 – the silent revolution

2016-03-14

There are a lot of changes in the version 0.822 of PragmataPro:

➊ Perfect integration with CJK fonts and Emoji

All the glyphs are been scaled to exactly 0.5 em² wide (= 1024-unit em) so they are compatible with CJK (Chinese/Japanese/Korean) characters, where every character are exactly 1 em² wide (= 2048 unit)

➋ All the arrows, planned by Unicode until now, are been designed

PragmataPro is now the first modular/monospaced font of the history that includes all these arrows.
You can see all from my Github repository named ‘Arrow Finder’

➌ Towards completion of Math support

It’s been improved the design of U+2200 – U+22FF Mathematical Operators set
added the U+2980 – U+29FF Misc. Mathematical Symbols-B set
added the U+2A00 – U+2AFF Supplemental Math Operators set
under the precious supervision of Pierre Le Marre

➍ New ligatures for functional programming languages

The design of ligatures that includes < and > is changed
Added a lot of new ligatures to improve the programming in Haskell, Scala, Swift … in all the weights available

Feel free to contact me directly or notify an issue via Github to improve PragmataPro again and again.
Thank you!
