+`scientifica` is largely based on
+[`creep`](https://github.com/romeovs/creep), with a number of
+minor tweaks to improve readability (*a matter of taste of
+course*). Most characters are just 4px wide, which is brilliant for

+ - Scaleable `ttf` format
+ - Raster formats: `otb` and `bdf`
+ - **Bold** and *Italic* variants
+ - New Characters to the following unicode blocks:
+   * Geometric Shapes
+   * Arrows
+   * Miscellaneous Technical
+   * Miscellaneous Symbols
+   * Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-A
+   * Private Use Area (Powerline symbols)
+   * Mathematical Operators
+   * Box Drawings
 
-Scientifica has a **bold** and an **italic** variant.
+ - Revamped characters: `V, *, f, W, M, ~, & , i, t, a, (), [], {}`

 ## Installation
 
-
-### Linux
-
-
- 1. Enable bitmap fonts
- ```shell
- cd /etc/fonts/conf.d/
- sudo rm /etc/fonts/conf.d/10* && sudo rm -rf 70-no-bitmaps.conf && sudo ln -s ../conf.avail/70-yes-bitmaps.conf
- sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig
-  ```
-
- 2. Get Scientifica
- ```shell
- cd ~ 
- git clone https://github.com/nerdypepper/scientifica --depth 1
- ```
-
- 3. Symlink it to the right folder
- ```shell
-ln -fs ~/scientifica/regular/scientifica-11.bdf ~/.local/share/fonts/scientifica-11.bdf
-ln -fs ~/scientifica/bold/scientificaBold-11.bdf ~/.local/share/fonts/scientificaBold-11.bdf
- ```
-
- 4. Use it. `rxvt` for example:
-
- ``` ini
-URxvt.font:xft:scientifica:size=11
-URxvt.font:xft:scientifica:size=22  !for the doubled variant
- ```
-
-
-### MacOS
-
-
- 1. Get Scientifica
- ```shell
- cd ~
- git clone https://github.com/nerdypepper/scientifica --depth 1
- ```
-
- 2. Open the `.dfont` in the Font Book.app  
-(This may not always be up to date. Try downloading the `.bdf` and exporting it to `.dfont` through fontforge)
-
- 3. You are done, I guess ... dont have a Mac to test it out.
-
- 4. Submit an issue in case you face any problems, or a pull request if you would like to correct me.
-
-
-
-## TODO
-
-Following agenda *may* be followed:
-
- - Add Control Pictures
- - ~~Add all mathematical operators~~ (Almost) Done!
- - ~~Get scientifica to work on windows~~ Done!
- - ~~Work on a bold version (Probably never)~~ Done!
- - Add variants for `a, i, l, 1` etc.
+Installation instructions have been moved to
+[`INSTALL.md`](INSTALL.md)
