    Better version:

    The alphabet from the front and above:
    ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
    ––––‒‒––·‒–‒— –––––‒–––—––‒

    This corresponds almost perfectly with Roboto on my Android phone. Characters featured:

    • U+00B7 · MIDDLE DOT (I)
    • U+2012 ‒ FIGURE DASH (EFJLSZ)
    • U+2013 – EN DASH (ABCDGHKNOPQRTUVXY)
    • U+2014 — EM DASH (MW)
    • U+200A   HAIR SPACE (put in the middle cuz M&W are too wide for any dash)

      This was my first thought, thanks for doing it.

      It drives me mad that the em dash isn’t the width of the M!

    M and W should be wider than the rest, shouldn’t they?

      Maybe it’s a monospaced font

        The i says otherwise.

        Then the “i” would likely be a dash too

      Not if it’s allegorical

      Nor if they are all the same letter or same size letters
