Courier New - rightwards double arrow


<span style='font-family: courier new; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 80%;'>
|something|&larr;|&rarr;|&lArr;|&rArr;|something|<br />
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||<br />
</span>

|something|←|→|⇐|⇒|something|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The above example demonstrates that the monospace Courier New font is not monospace. You can use this text for testing Notepad, Mozilla Firefox 3.*, PuTTY. The rightwards double arrow is wider than it should be. Under IE8, and Firefox 4.* both double arrows are wider than they should be. (All tested under Win7)

Here I divide by z[AUTOSAVED]
