I wouldn't be too harsh here, Kit; they're very difficult to distinguish in
some fonts...
...which leads to the generic advice: make sure you work in a font that
clearly distinguishes between 1 (one) and l (lowercase el).
So for example: Lucida Console good; but Times New Roman and Courier New
(especially 8 point or below) not so much.
I learned this lesson the hard way. ;)
Best,
Glenn.
