Open octothorpe

[paolobolzoni]

The octothorpe of IBM Plex looks somewhat weird, but it is well readable even when displayed very small. Since Iosevka is used for code and it is very tight I think it would be a valuable addition to have a bit more breeze in the text.

Even after downloading the latest dev code this simple build plan leave the number sign closed and upright... Am I missing something?

I open the resulting regular font with DTL OTMaster and checked the octothorp with Glyph Index (gid) 6.

 $ cat private-build-plans.toml
# parameters.toml

[buildPlans.iosevka-paopao]
family = "Iosevka Paopao test"

design = [ "sp-fixed", "VXBI" ]
hintParams = ["-a", "sss"]

[buildPlans.iosevka-paopao.weights.light]
shape = 300
menu  = 300
css   = 300

[buildPlans.iosevka-paopao.weights.regular]
shape = 500
menu  = 400
css   = 400

[buildPlans.iosevka-paopao.weights.bold]
shape = 700
menu  = 700
css   = 700

[buildPlans.iosevka-paopao.slants]
upright = "normal"
italic = "italic"

@paolobolzoni What's your command used to build fonts. I used npm run build -- contents::iosevka-paopao and the result match expectation.

The command was the same. Then I tried to fully reset the building environment. But after compiling otfccit fails at one test:

[...] [==========] 1990 tests from 183 test suites ran. (5981 ms total)
[  PASSED  ] 1989 tests.
[  FAILED  ] 1 tests, listed below:
[  FAILED  ] premake_http.http_redirect
HTTP response code said error
The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found

Of course, previously this did not happen. I will try to understand more.

I know it is not great, but merely skipping the otfcc tests after the compilation and then resetting the whole building environment gave the expected result.
