But I think that would only be good for YOUR computer,
which is fine if that's all you need it for. If you send a letter
to somebody in HTML (rich text) using this font, if they
don't have it on their computer as well, they'll get that
annoying large square in place of every slash-zero
you have.

"...everybody has a right to have thier own
oppinion... ...i'm even a Democrat... ...but
in this time of trouble, we need to show the
world our resolve and we're united, and we
should NOT denigrate the president."

Well, not really, because ALT-0216 is that same Nordic character in
almost every font, except in symbols. The problem is that it really does
not represent zero, so you can only use it for cosmetic purposes and any
logging program will throw up if you attempt to use it. There are fonts
available that display zero with a slash, though.
