The Path to Dijkstra’s Handwriting (2013)

Thanks for this reference. I write a lot of notes (and then struggle to transcribe them). I am considering getting that book and practicing on an iPad (which has a different experience than pen on paper) and perhaps teach myself something reliable that can replace manual transcription.

Back in the Palm days my Graffiti handwriting was (perforce!) pretty clear, but it wasn't that great to use.

I get mocked because I still use a sigma for a capital E.

Then how do you write a Sigma?

You know I draw capital Alpha the same way I draw capital roman letter A and people don't seem to be confused.

It gets annoying if you do math or physics or whatever. Otherwise, no one will get confused.
