+# v1.2.1
+
+- improved ClearType and DirectWrite hinting on Windows 7+ systems.
+
+- fixed a hinting issue on Windows making the 0 (zero) glyph appear taller for   
+  some PPEM sizes.
+
+*Note: if you are on OS X and are currently happy with Meslo v1.0
+there is no need to upgrade to v1.2 since this version is just fixes
+for Windows mostly. Also, sorry, no Arabic support yet since I
+haven't found a Bitstream like font that allows extracting portions
+of Arabic code pages to be used in another font.*
+
+# v1.2
+
+- reworked all OS/2 metrics to perform uniformly across platforms...
+
+- ...which should fix issues with monospaced layout and line height on Windows.  
+  (tests in Notepad, Eclipse and Visual Studio 2012 Express on Windows 7 x64 SP1  
+  look promising).
+
+# v1.0
+
+Meslo has changed its name to Meslo LG which now includes three
+variants: small, medium and large.
+
+LG stands for Line Gap, so there's one variant for smaller vertical
+line spacing, more towards Apple's Menlo, a normal line gap (which
+equals Meslo v0.1) and a large gap, which is more than twice the
+space of Apple's Menlo.
+
+In addition to Regular, there are italic, bold and bold italic
+weights included for each variant.
+
+Tweaked the ascender/descender/line gap relationship a bit for
+better layout at marginal smaller font sizes and prominent font
+styles (such as bold and bold italic). Things line underlines should
+be better to perceive now for the font styles.
+
+The asterisk was tweaked for all font styles. This includes making
+it line up with all alignment zones for similar height symbol
+characters and fixing Menlo's absence of a slanting angle for the
+italic and bold italic font styles while maintaining the readability
+at all sizes.
+
+Added a dotted zero version of Meslo LG which is called Meslo LG DZ.
+
+# v0.1
+
+Initial release.

+# Meslo LG (Line Gap)
+
+### A customized version of Apple's Menlo-Regular font (which is itself a customized version of Bitstream's Vera Sans Mono).
+
+In Snow Leopard, Menlo-Regular is now the preferred default font
+for Apple's developer tools and also the Terminal (unless you changed
+the font settings yourself before upgrading to Snow Leopard, in
+which case your changes will remain). I really like Menlo but I
+have my gripes with it:
+
+* The default vertical (line) spacing is just way too cramped
+* I am not particularity fond of the horizontal baseline alignment of the asterisk.
+
+These issues are why I decided to customize Menlo. The tricky part
+is keeping all the custom tables, hints, etc. intact when you adjust
+the globally very affecting stuff that results in vertical spacing.
+
+The LG in Meslo LG stands for Line Gap. The idea is to give the
+user to have some control over vertical spacing by choosing one of
+three line gap variants: small, medium and large (**Meslo LG S**,
+**Meslo LG M** and **Meslo LG L** respectively). To learn more, 
+check out [the FAQ](http://github.com/andreberg/Meslo-Font/wiki/Frequently-Answered-Questions) and [the wiki](http://github.com/andreberg/Meslo-Font/wiki).
+
+If you're interested in looks, you can find comparisons on the wiki [for OS X](http://github.com/andreberg/Meslo-Font/wiki/Menlo-Meslo-LG-Compared-%28Mac-OS-X%29) and [Windows](http://github.com/andreberg/Meslo-Font/wiki/Meslo-LG-Examples-%28Windows%29).
