from Tues. Apr 8:
the worthless word for the day is: keming
[fr. misreading kerning] /KEM ing/
the result of improper kerning
(a new typography term: keming )
kerning - the addition or removal of space between
individual characters in a piece of typeset text to
improve its appearance or alter its fit
here are some examples where Book Search software
makes this exact mistake: link
"Bad keming is rampant in all those twisty groovy
captcha phrases." - anon.
"Spum Bad Keming" - anon.
