This is a minor update. It contains a bug fix and a few new font variations. One
of them (#28) is particularly interesting and unique in that it allows any
object to fill the interior of the characters. Animating the interior object
would be a fun effect.

There are also two new characters: a dollar sign and an underscore.

This is a minuscule update that contains an animated demo of Font Variation #28
(which can be viewed here: youtube.com/watch?v=y02WPaJKuGI), as well as a minor
tweak to the Font Variation code.

Another minor update... Includes a couple obscure bug fixes, re-numbering of the
last couple Font Variations, and a new star-shape character.

I'm pretty certain this project is done. I know I said that a long time ago but
I haven't added anything significant for quite a while and the things that
aren't perfect would take too long to fix. If I find any more bugs I'll post
fixes but that's probably about it.

Regards,
Dave Blandston

I'd like to see another font. A serif font would be nice. ;)

Also, you should put this in the Object Collection.

Oh my, adding serifs would be a huge job. I'll add the scene files to the Object
Collection though when I'm certain the project is completely done.
