Publish the GNUFL list separately

Open LettError opened this issue 9 years ago • 4 comments

For those who would like to use the GNUFL list this whole package is a substantial download. It would be useful to publish the list all by itself, perhaps with a simple reader. Maybe also consider additional output formats, json maybe?

This could be a package that is mostly generated from data, tables, available in glyphNameFormatter. Package should be structured so that it can be embedded easily in other applications, easy to import. @typemytype

  • glyphnames
  • mirrored list
  • unicode ranges
  • joining types
  • maybe also the small tools from reader.py

I'm personally most interested in having a pip-installable code-point ⟺ glyph-name mapping API. All other meta info (that I need) I can find in unicodedata2 and/or fontTools.unicodedata.

I don't know how to do that but would welcome help.

I can help with the pip-installable part. I would need help figuring out how to get the mapping data from this package.
