   A simple font management application for Gtk+ Desktop Environments

|============================= Version 0.7.2 ==================================|

Please DO NOT file issues regarding feature enhancements or missing features at this time.

However feel free to comment at

https://code.google.com/p/font-manager/issues/detail?id=85

Features that are expected to work at this time:

Migration of fonts and collections from the previous version

Font Previews

Enabling / Disabling Fonts

Creating / Deleting / Enabling / Disabling of Font Collections

Font Installation
    - By drag and drop (Preferred method)
    - By using the file selector

    Note : Drag and drop should allow installation of not only individual
           font files but also entire directories and archives. The file
           selector unfortunately will not allow selection of directories.

Font removal

Font directory monitoring

    Note : Font Manager should reload itself anytime fonts are installed
           or removed either through the application or any other method.

Font Sources

    Adding / Removing font folders.

    Note : Fonts in these folders should be available for preview in the
           application even if they are not enabled system wide.

Opening Font Files

    The application can now be set as the default handler for font files.
    When called with the path to a font file it will launch as a font viewer.
    The font viewer is very simple and is only intended for previewing
    and installing individual font files.

File Manager Extensions

    When the font viewer is running you should be able to preview font files
    by simply selecting them in the file manager.

    To enable an extension pass --enable-pycompile --with-nautilus,
    --with-thunar or --with-nemo to configure.

    For more details and known issues see the README file in the extensions
    directory.

Character map details viewer

Database search

FontConfig editor
    - session-wide settings
    - per font settings
    - aliases (low priority)

Unless the issue also occurs when using Adwaita, or most other themes...
