High Level Language for Hinting
Hi all
Given previous postings, auto-manual hinting is popular, but as one member remarked, hinting language are such a BLANK that its doubtful that anyone would use them. I check a specification and I see the point. Also, I’m working with Gold parser generator and am about to start writing some code and a high level font hinting language could make a useful “contrasting” language as part of the project.
So, any opinions but like deeper “than that’s a good idea.” The first step would be to produce the grammar working back from how you would like to write the code, and that’s probably an education in itself .
