(Get the code!)
The absolute smallest a font can go and still be generally usable is an
x-height of 5 pixels. Any less than that and there simply aren't enough
pixels to get the message across. How large that is in pt depends on
your dpi settings, but if other monospace fonts are readable at your
chosen size, ours should be too - but we can't work miracles with too
few pixels.
