''' This script needs to be called from one of the folders that FontForge looks in for scripts to
|
||
|
|
run when it is started. With current versions of FontForge, one is Home/.config/fontforge/python.
|
||
|
|
You may need to turn on showing hidden files (ctrl-H in Nautilus) before you can see the .config
|
||
|
|
folder. Within there create a one-line python script, say call sampledemo.py containing a call
|
||
|
|
to this script, eg:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
execfile("/home/david/src/pysilfont/scripts/samples/demoAddToMenu.py")
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Due to the reload(samples.demoFunctions) line above, changes functions defined in demoFunctions.py
|
||
|
|
are dynamic, ie FontForge does not have to be restarted (as would be the case if the functions were
|
||
|
|
called directly from the tools menu. Functions can even be added dynamically to the function groups.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If new function groups are defined, FontForge does have to be restarted to add them to the tools menu.
