I think there was an article in a past issue of HolQeD about a handwritten
version of it. Also see some of the GIF files on ftp.kli.org, which have
Nick Nicholas' "handwritten" and "Gothic" forms of pIqaD. I've also come
up with a handwritten style, similar (not identical) to Nick's, which I
nearly never use. I don't like pIqaD all that much.
