Adjustable kerning? #27

Closed adamgarbo closed 3 years ago

adamgarbo commented 3 years ago

Hi there,

I just discovered this nifty little tool yesterday and have been having loads of fun creating my own libraries of labels with the Python script.

However, I've noticed that the kerning between the letters of labels produced with the Python script and FredokaOne font can often be greater than those produced using the github.io tool. Is there any way to adjust this?

Cheers, Adam

P.S. I think it'd be great to have some real-world examples showing how to execute a command to produce multiple labels. This took a few minutes to figure out as it wasn't immediately clear to me. For example:

python3 buzzard.py -o 'lib' -s 0.08 -f FredokaOne '[GND]','[3V3]','(SCL)','(SDA)','>!CS!<'

After using the Python tool more extensively, I don't believe this request is a super high priority. It would be "nice to have", though.
