Request for chaning font location in Linux distro. #38

Open javadr opened 9 months ago

javadr commented 9 months ago

Thanks for your effort and your nice plugin.

There is an essential issue with the font's location under Linux. As you might know, the user's font directory on Linux systems is under .fonts, and all fonts will be there. It's a bad idea to have a separate directory for fonts. Moving your font to this directory, .fonts, makes your extension more professional.

Also, the vazir font made by the late Saber Rastikerdar is so famous that many distros have it in their repos too. For example, on my machine, you will find the following.

/usr/share/fonts/vazirmatn/Vazirmatn-RD-UI-Thin.ttf

agree, any update about changing font location?

I have commented out the following lines in extension.js to remove the unnecessary folder since the Vazirmatn font is already installed in my system fonts.

this.install_fonts();

this.uninstall_fonts();
