Or I could just write a simple BASIC program for the TI-83+ (of which this font was originally for, BTW) that generates all of the possible combinations and pick the best characters out by hand.

Well, you _could_, but it would take a lot of time and the various fonts people already posted are good enough that it wouldn't be worth it. Doing it as a distributed thing would be much faster, and cooler. However, I doubt anyone, including myself, cares enough to follow through with either plan.

Too late. Sadly my TI-83+ was almost out of batteries, so I did it by hand. Yay copy and paste!

Re: Smallest possible bitmap font
I actually see quite a few good looking characters in that..
