In my perennial quest to make everyone love oldstyle numerals, I decided to make a fork of one of my favorite programming fonts, [Inconsolata][lgc], and give it oldstyle numerals.

<figure>
<img src="/images/inconsolata-oldstyle-example.png" alt="The numbers 0 through 9 set in Inconsolata LGC using oldstyle numerals"/>
<figcaption>This is what it looks like</figcaption>
</figure>

The font can be downloaded [from GitHub][download].

If I figure out how to properly use FontForge, I'll also add [programming ligatures][lig] at some point.
