Wine is a way to run Windows software on Linux, but with no Windows required. Wine is an open-source Windows compatibility layer that can run Windows programs directly on any Linux desktop. Essentially, Wine is trying to re-implement enough of Windows from scratch so that it can run all those Windows applications without actually needing Windows.

DESCRIPTION
Programming languages are limited to relatively few characters. As a result, combined character operators surfaced quite early, such as the widely used arrow (->), comprised of a hyphen and greater sign. It looks like an arrow if you know the analogy and squint a bit. Composite glyphs are problematic in languages such as Haskell which utilize these complicated operators (=> -< >>= etc.) extensively. The readability of such complex code improves with pretty printing. Academic articles featuring Haskell code often use lhs2tex to achieve an appealing rendering, but it is of no use when programming. Hasklig solves the problem the way typographers have always solved ill-fitting characters which co-occur often, ligatures. The underlying code stays the same, only the representation changes. Not only can multi-character glyphs be rendered more vividly, other problematic things in monospaced fonts, such as spacing can be corrected.
Features
- Multi-character glyphs are rendered more vividly
- Problematic things in monospaced fonts, such as spacing can be corrected
- Several currently implemented symbols
- Some SVG glyphs are inserted into the fonts using Python FontTools
- To build the binary font files from source, you need to have installed the Adobe Font Development Kit for OpenType (AFDKO)
- For convenience, a shell script named build is provided in the root directory to build all OTFs and TTFs
Programming Language
Python
