this game I'm doing "."
I need bracket characters because I don't just need the pixels of the glyphs from the game, I need their width too.
So by having consistent bracketing letters, I can visually search for them
because like ".i." and ".W." will have the dots different distances apart
FAST LETTERS
that sure is a letter
good news: it turns out this font is monospaced
so I don't have to extract the widths
