The most widely known and distributed of these is Coolvetica, which Larabie introduced in 1999 Larabie stated he was inspired by Helvetica Flair, Chalet, and similar variants in creating some of Coolvetica's distinguishing glyphs (most strikingly a swash on capital 'G', lowercase 'y' based on the letterforms of 'g' and 'u,' and a fully curled lowercase 't'), and chose to set a tight default spacing optimised for use in display type. In the digital period, Canadian type designer Ray Larabie has released several digital fonts based upon Helvetica. Much more loosely, Roboto was developed by Christian Robertson of Google as the system font for its Android operating system this has a more condensed design with the influence of straight-sided geometric designs like DIN 1451. A derivative of this family known as 'TeX Gyre Heros' has been prepared for use in the TeX scientific document preparation software, and since 2009 general under the GUST font license. It (or a derivative) is used by much open-source software such as R as a system font. Nimbus Sans L, a version of URW's Nimbus Sans spaced to match the standard Linotype/PostScript version of Helvetica, was released under the GNU General Public License in 1996, and donated to the Ghostscript project to create a free PostScript alternative.
