PNW language support, and other fixes #357
Conversation
1) Added support for Salishan language groups 2) Remastered mark positioning for glyphs with 2 diacritics (needed for Salishan) 3) Rebuild Build Script to simplify code 4) Fixed minor other hinting issues 5) Fixed RVRN substitutions for heavy weight
Also it wants to update the hyphen glyph, but I don't see any specific changes.

You warned me that you'd drop this, and I didn't listen well enough, so I 100% deserve having to review a gigantic PR 😄 |
|
(Excited! Thanks! Does this include the hyphen_less_less change from #352?) |
|
@DHowett Yes. I'd suggest merging the other one first to reduce the risk of merge issues. :) |
|
K. We may end up with a conflict in build.py; I'll let you know in a sec. |
|
Conflict resolved. Giving this a smoketest, buzzing over a couple files, and we'll get it signed. |

👍 If you want some language samples to look at, I suggest looking at the Salishan sections of http://www.languagegeek.com/ |
Re-adding the static folder

This is lovely. |

Thanks Dustin! If you have time, would you be able to push a new release tomorrow? :) |

Sure thing! Already ran the full pipeline to get it ready :) |
