36# ── What this package does ──────────────────────────────────────────────────
37#
38# Didact Gothic (Daniel Johnson, Cyreal; Google Fonts) is a single-weight
39# (Regular) geometric sans with Latin, Greek (monotonic and polytonic) and
40# Cyrillic, version 2.101. The source is pinned to the google/fonts commit above.
41#
42# Unlike most families in this series, upstream ALREADY ships hinting (fpgm/cvt,
43# ttfautohint-style bytecode). Measured at hintmedium (README.md section 3) a
44# re-hint with ttfautohint gives the same result as the upstream bytecode
45# (natural: dev 12.2 vs 11.9, 0 glued dots, 0 height errors in both), so
46# HINTING defaults to false and the upstream file is installed untouched.
47# HINTING=true re-hints with your preset. A Nerd Fonts patch drops the bytecode,
48# so NERD_PATCH=true defaults HINTING to true.
49#
50# FreeType only runs TrueType bytecode at hintstyle hintmedium/hintfull. The
51# package ships (not enabled) /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/80-$pkgname.conf
52# that turns it on for the installed family, excluding Chromium/Electron by
53# prgname (at device scale 1 they round every advance at hintmedium).
54#
55# ── Build-time options ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────
56#
57# Run from a terminal, prepare() asks for NERD_PATCH, FEATURE_DEFAULTS,
58# HINTING and HINT_PRESET (Enter keeps the default). Anything already set in the
59# environment is not asked. Without a TTY the environment / defaults apply.
60# Answers are saved to $srcdir/.build_opts.
61#
62# NERD_PATCH true/false Patch with Nerd Fonts glyphs (default: false).
63# Patching drops the upstream bytecode, so HINTING
64# then defaults to true. Family "Didact Gothic Nerd Font
65# (Mono|Propo)".
66#
67# HINTING true/false Re-hint with ttfautohint. Default: false (keep the
68# upstream bytecode), true with NERD_PATCH=true.
69#
70# HINT_PRESET natural|balanced|sharp|light|custom (default: natural)
71# natural stem=nnn range 8-48 x-height 0 (closest to the
72# outline; default)
73# balanced stem=qsq range 8-48 x-height 14 (ttfautohint
74# defaults; opens
75# a few more dots,
76# same dev at 400)
77# sharp stem=sss range 6-48 x-height 14 (higher dev)
78# light stem=nnn range 12-48 x-height 0 (HiDPI)
79# custom use the HINT_* variables below verbatim
80# Individual knobs (override the preset; empty = preset value):
81# HINT_MODE HINT_RANGE_MIN HINT_RANGE_MAX HINT_LIMIT HINT_XHEIGHT
82# HINT_XSNAP_EXC HINT_DEFAULT_SCRIPT HINT_FALLBACK_SCRIPT HINT_WINCOMPAT
83# HINT_TTFA_TABLE HINT_FAMILY_SUFFIX HINT_INTEGER_PPEM (off: it grows text on
84# Linux, +16-19% ink at small sizes) GASP_MODE keep|sized|smooth|gridfit
85#
86# FEATURE_DEFAULTS "tag,tag,..." (default: empty = leave the fonts alone)
87# Bake these GSUB features into calt so EVERY renderer applies
88# them (fontconfig fontfeatures only reaches pango). Didact
89# Gothic's candidates: case, frac, lnum, onum, sups, ss01 (see
90# FEATURES.md); liga is already on in every shaper.
91# make_features.py refuses aalt/ordn/dlig/salt. Few are right for
92# running text; frac and sups fire inside ordinary words.
93# FEATURE_DEFAULTS=fonts.conf takes the features that are ACTIVE
94# (uncommented) in the <match> for family "Didact Gothic" of
95# ${DG_FONTS_CONF:-~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf}. Dropped with
96# a note: negated tags (-liga), tags the font lacks in GSUB, tags
97# HarfBuzz always applies (kern liga ccmp locl mark mkmk calt) and
98# the ones make_features.py refuses (aalt ordn dlig ...).
99# FEATURE_FAMILY "Name" Install the result under this family instead.
100#
101# Examples:
102# makepkg -si (asks, when run from a terminal)
103# makepkg -si </dev/null (never asks: defaults only)
104# HINTING=true makepkg -si
105# HINT_PRESET=balanced makepkg -si
106# NERD_PATCH=true makepkg -si
