"The Five Boxing Wizards Jump Quickly"

This is much better than "the quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog", which was the only other pangram I had known before seeing this blog entry by X guru Keith Packard. Talking of X, XFree86 released their server version 4.5.0 almost a week ago and I haven't seen references to it on any of the main nerds news sites yet. From the same blog entry by Keith, I came to know that a font designed 530 years ago still looks quite decent.

  1. "The five boxing wizards jumped quickly"

    IS NOT A PANAGRAM! There is no letter "N" to be a panagram you must utilize all the letters in the alphabet! You can replace it however with:

    "Then, five boxing wizards jump quickly"

  2. Dear Anonymous, you might wish to consider the fact that the word "boxing" does contain the letter "N".
