Radical Appearance

[Donatien-Alphonse]

Hello,

In previous versions, radicals always appeared great, just as if from a printed book. Now, however, there's an ugly hook on the right side of the top bar. I suppose someone might think that useful, since it emphasizes just how far the radical extends. But to my eyes, it's scruffy, like something from a poorly typeset book of Victorian times.

Is there any way to change the font back to the way it used to be, which looked so clean and professional?

I'm using wxMaxima 24.01.1, on Linux Mint.

Thanks.

Changed that now (commit f570baf). But I don't know, what's "correct" (TeX uses the sign without the vertical line at the end), maybe some people will complain now, that that small vertical line is missing now...
Best regards, Wolfgang

Hello again, Wolfgang,

Thank you for your patient work on this. The radicals look great once again.

For what it's worth, I've only ever seen the hook/vertical line business in 200-year-old books. To my eyes, the straight top looks much cleaner and up-to-date. It's great to have it back again.
