PROGRAM:

NAME


fontypython - Find, view and manage font files of all kinds.

SYNOPSIS


fontypython [OPTIONS]... [VIEW]... [TARGET]...

DESCRIPTION


fontypython is a GUI utility written in Python and WxPython that will help you do font
stuff on GNU/Linux system. You can quickly view and filter arbitrary* TTF, TTC, OTF or
Type1 font files and then gather them together into 'Pogs' which can be installed or
removed as needed. In this way you control which fonts are installed on a per-project
basis.

If you have gucharmap or kfontview installed, (there is an option in Settings to choose
which one) you can view any font's character maps etc.

*Arbitrary means you can see and/or use any fonts in a local directory (or a mount). They
do not need to be installed on your system.

OPTIONS


VIEW A place where fonts are. A Pog or a folder someplace.

TARGET
A "Pog". A place to keep those fonts (just references to them).

OPTIONS
Below are the various command-line options. You don't need to use them, but they
are handy. The program will run as a GUI if you only invoke 'fontypython'.

-e, --examples
Show some %$@#$ examples!

-l, --list
List the names of all the Pogs.

-i Pog, --install=Pog
Install the fonts in this Pog to your fonts folder.

-u Pog, --uninstall=Pog
Uninstall the fonts in this Pog.

-p Pog, --purge=Pog
Purge the Pog of font files that are no longer really there.

-s num, --size=num
Set a new default point size.

-n num, --number=num
Set a new default for how many fonts to view at one go. Don't overdo this.

-c folder --check=folder
Check for bad fonts that crash the program. It will recurse through sub-folders.
This will build a file: ~/.fontypython/segfonts After using this tool you should be
able to browse safely. (The reason it's not done by default is that it's very
slow.) NOTE: The fonts that crash the program are probably still perfectly good
and can be used in other apps.

-a folder Pog, --all=folder Pog
Puts all fonts in this folder into the Pog. If the Pog already exists, it will add
only *new* fonts, this means fonts are not repeated in that Pog.

-A folder Pog, --all-recurse=folder Pog
Puts all fonts in this folder and *all* sub-folders into the Pog. Rest same as -a.

-z Pog, --zip=Pog
All the fonts inside Pog will be zipped and the zipfile will be named after the
Pog. The file will be placed in the current directory.

--version
Show program's version number and exit.

-h, --help
Show help message and exit.
