+% Base style and command for \circled to print a colored circle

+% Width is assured to be the same across all characters using the typewriter font which is monospaced
+% Zeroing out the inner separator removes padding between content and node (inner sep).
+% Zeroing out the outer separator removes space between the node border and its anchors (e.g., east).
+% Minimum size was derived on experimentation and it may need adjustment when changing font style/size.
+%
+% There is no guarantee for the letter ascenders/descenders to baseline when set to char.base, hence adding \strut.
+% which is an invisible vertical rule with the height and depth of the parentheses ( and ).
+% It ensures that the line height in a line of text is at least as large as if it contained parentheses.
