200x200 icon wastes too much valuable screen estate on a smart phone.

This way we can deliver the right size based on the window size (wide or narrow), rather than deliver a universal one then scale down.

2015-07-25create 200x200 icon, and use it on every pageZhiming Wang2-1/+1
400x400 is a waste, given that the size of the logo set by CSS is either 100x100 (wide) or 200x200 (narrow).
2015-07-25create separate square icon as Apple touch iconZhiming Wang4-3/+24
Round icon with transparent filling doesn't work well on iOS's home screen, because the transparent part will be filled in black. Also, the letters ZW have been enlarged to look better in a square icon.

Add class and variation selector (# U+FE0E: VARIATION SELECTOR-15) to U+21A9: LEFTWARDS ARROW WITH HOOK to fix outstanding font issue of footnote backlinks on mobile. Updated styles accordingly.

2015-07-23configure viewport and get rid of theme-enlarge.cssZhiming Wang1-8/+0
Viewport configuration per Google's mobile usability suggestions. It not only provides a consistent experience by using device independent pixels, but also help me get rid of theme-enlarge.css, which could result in unexpectedly large font when one accidently resize to a portrait window on the desktop. Thanks Google! See https://developers.google.com/speed/docs/insights/ConfigureViewport.

Add a `>` between paragraphs so that a multi-paragraph block quote is inside one <blockquote> tag. Otherwise the left bar would be broken.

The bar is the same as that for pre. Horizontal padding reduced to 1em.

2015-07-17fix line number placementZhiming Wang3-5/+6
Global font size in each style sheet has been tweaked very carefully so that the precise line height is very close to a whole number of pixels, so that precision alignment using em, which aligns something precise (top: 13.5em) to something inprecise (line heights, with accumulated errors due to rounding in every line), is not lost. Note that Firefox is NOT supported, since each line seems to always occupy one more pixel than the calculated line height. For some reason line numbers in the print view are still rather problematic at a page continuation. In Chrome and Safari, the first two line numbers on a new page tend to overlap, so everything afterwards are off (and on Firefox line numbers do not show up on the second page at all). Anyway, printing shouldn't be a big concern.

For better formatting. The following screenshots illustrate the difference: * https://i.imgur.com/ZfkUpBG.png * https://i.imgur.com/S6cRK00.png I also reduced the indentation on the left of each year's index from 2em to 1em.

2015-06-16fix font issues: moving back to Droid Sans Mono for codeZhiming Wang2-2/+12
I just noticed that code font is crazy without Consolas installed (I recently reinstalled my OS and got rid of Office for Mac 2011 — that's probably why). The line numbers are all off (since the line heights are carefully pre-calculated, and fallback fonts of different leadings won't help). Therefore, I'm moving to the quite nice looking and controllable Droid Sans Mono. Isn't as satisfactory as Consolas on the web, but certainly better than Monaco. Note: I originally copied my list Consolas, Monaco, 'Andale Mono', monospace (I added Courier since I like it a lot as the primitive monospace font) from MDN Wiki, but now it looks like a bad choice when I don't have Consolas any more. By the way, MDN Wiki renders line numbers using JS, so at least they are able to calculate the line heights. I'm serving everything statically, so this is a problem.
