A monospace character set designed to draw hexagons, that can be used in flat files or a terminal.
It aims to be the equivalent of the box-drawing characters for hexagons. This set is designed with 2 line styles: simple and double, and allow mixing both.
Checkout the demo here.
This set is used to draw flat-top hexagons and contains 34 glyphs.
The smallest hexagon can be drawn on a 5x3 grid and contains 3 free slots in the center of each hexagon, that can be used to include any other monospace character.
This set is used to draw pointy-top hexagons and contains 42 glyphs.
Like in the flat-top set, the smallest hexagon can be drawn on a 5x3 grid and also contains 3 free slots in the center of each hexagon, that can be used to include any other monospace character.
This light set is used to draw small pointy-top hexagons and is only provided as sinple-line style.
The smallest hexagon can be drawn on a 3x3 grid and contains 1 free slot in the center of each hexagon, that can be used to include any other monospace character.
