Could somebody make a leets font

[cocobomb]

I was wondering if someone could make a leets font. I cant figure out how . If you dont know what leets is then follow this link http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet_speak If you can make this for me thank you so much!!

-EDIT sorry the link is in a different language than english but you can figure it out.

Why do you need it as a font? It already uses standard Latin characters (in fact, that's the point of leet speak).

Just write whatever you want in the user-editable parts of Rockbox (WPS/Database) in leet.

As can be seen from the "translation" table on the Wikipedia page you linked, there are multiple alternative glyphs associated with every letter, most of them composed of multiple letters themselves.
No simple replacement font is going to be able to display

in place of a w, as it is five characters.

If you can find an existing font you like there is always http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/CreateFonts
the excellent wiki documentation on how to use it with Rockbox.

What one *could* to is create a leet.lang as an alternative to english.lang...

that would work, but be hard to read i would think.

I juste tried to replace the alphabet to the leet alphabet on Bloc-Note and it doesn't work... Hehe, don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Why couldn't a w be much wider, and consist of 5 characters copied from a different font. I don't see any technical reasons why this couldn't be done. It'd be an annoying job, but don't see why it couldn't be done. Of course you'll have a single glyph per character, but it could easily look like multiple characters as far as I can tell.

rasher, this can certainly be done.  Users of iPodWizard used to do this sort of thing frequently.
