Antialiased fonts.

[paulodelgado]

Not sure if this is by design but /System/etc/fonts.conf has

 <match target="font" >
    <edit mode="assign" name="antialias" >
      <bool>false</bool>
    </edit>
  </match>

In my install I changed that to true and also added one more <dir> entry for the default Debian fonts. Now it looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
  <dir>/System/Fonts</dir>
  <dir>/Library/Fonts</dir>
  <dir>/usr/share/fonts</dir>
.
.
.

I forked this repo because I wanted to submit a PR but figured I'd ask first to check this wasn't something set by design.

Should be OK now.

• the anti-aliasing is configured in the Preferences.app
• you can add additional fonts by copying them into ~/Library/Fonts or you can symlink the entire directory (e.g. ln -s /usr/share/fonts ~/Library/fonts)

Thank you for replying. I have two more questions, when you have some time.

the anti-aliasing is configured in the Preferences.app -> does this refer to the checkbox with "Enable LCD font smoothing" or am I missing something? I remember checking/unchecking this and nothing happened.

I saw your new commits in this repo and want to pull those changes. Is the best way to do so by running something like this:

su -
cd /path/to/gs-desktop
git pull
./fetch-world.sh
./build-world.sh

Or is there something I'm missing?

Thanks for the great work on this project!

yes, that's right. Remember to re-login.

I normally do:

cd /path/to/gs-desktop
git pull
./fetch-world.sh
sudo -E ./clean-word.dh
sudo -E ./build-world.sh
