Comment: I'm expressing the imperative as in the Blissary. I'm not sure if CKB's handbook deals with the imperative.

How should I rename a font, that contains a subset of blissymbols
I realized, I need some of the most common blissymbols ... to be available in plain text editors (VSCode, ...) .
I am going to take the ASEMTOG_F700.ttf font from 2019 ... as an amateur standard, available unchanging for many future years // @ George Sutton
You can see the font, since 2019, at https://martin12333.github.io/symbol\_boards/
But I am definitely going to **rename** the "ASEMTOG_F700" font ... what new font name would you prefer:

Spam filter strength in this sub was too high
in recent months, reddit is targetted by tons of crypto spam
now it seems, i set the "Spam filter strength" as way way too high ('ALL')
'HIGH' is the standard filter, 'LOW' disables most filtering, 'ALL' will filter every post initially and they will need to be approved manually to be visible

// i did this foolishness in several subs
.....

posts are marked "Sorry, this post was removed by Reddit’s filters."
...
I apologize.
reddit didnt notify me (well enough?) , that there are posts waiting
so i am going back to the 'HIGH' setting
and i will be promoting some posters to be moderators, so they could approve their posts, if i mis-set again

And one more Latin proverb
VINUM EST LAC SENUM, VENENUM IUVENIS.
"Wine is the milk of the elderly, the poison of the young." One of the wisest Latin proverbs ever.
Happy coincidence: apparently milk in Blissymbols is "life drink" and venom in Blissymbols is "death drink".
BTW, I see that my posts are getting no comments at all. Perhaps I should move to a specific Blissymbols subreddit?

One more classic Latin proverb in Blissymbols
"I am what you will be, I was what you are." A typical writing in Roman tombstones.

Using Blissymbols
A classical Latin proverb:
I am studying the theory of Blissymbols, but I need some practice. So I will post brief samples of Blissymbols like this. Apparently there is no Unicode font for Blissymbols, as far as I know; so I basically copy & paste my PNG files into a Word sheet, and then I paste a screenshot of it here.
