Hi, I just saw you updated Glyphtracer to Qt5 last year. In 2015, I made a fork of GlyphTracer. I think I sent you a mail back then for merging our projects but it might have ended in limbo... If you're interested to look at it, it's there: https://github.com/osp/osp.tools.fons

I don't recall all the changes I've made. But from what I recall:

• I replaced potrace with autotrace so that the tracing is made directly with python-fontforge in order to add the scan of the letter in a layer so that one can have it as a reference if s·he wants to modify it in Fontforge
• I added a font height and font ascent settings so that the scales are good when opening the font
• I added zoom scales, new characters
• I added autowidth and autohint
• I added spacing characters automatically

In the repo, I added some guidelines to prepare the images for the scanning.

Hope this finds your interests!

I don't really plan on doing much work on this, I just ported it to Qt 5 and Python 3 because I was asked to. If someone else wants to take over the maintainership for this project, I'm totally fine with it.
