GNU Unifont is a Unicode font with a glyph for every visible Unicode
Basic Multilingual Plane code point and more, with supporting utilities
to modify the font. The Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane covers the
first 65,536 (or 2^16) Unicode code points.

* Font glyphs are now dual-licensed under the SIL Open Font

with the GNU Font Embedding Exception.
* Many glyphs in these ranges were re-aligned so the dominant
horizontal line would be positioned in row 7, counting from
the bottom. Some glyphs were redrawn.

- U+2400..U+24FF Miscellaneous Technical
- U+25A0..U+25FF Geometric Shapes
- APL operators such as the tacks and jot were not modified,
so as not to alter alignments of glyphs that APL superimposes
on each other.

negated operators from vertical lines to slanted lines.
* Added three new Under ConScript Unicode Registry (UCSUR) Scripts:
