I'm not as sure as you are about the value of grays in characters. The only improvement I can think of would be to dither curves so they appear more curvy to the eye. But I think this effect would be less noticeable than eliminating the gray bits in favor of improving the resolution. Some experiments would be useful and perhaps necessary for answering the question. David Spector Prime Computer, Inc. ds@primerd.prime.com (until the layoff)
