font() does not support "dotted" font names, but installedFonts() does return them #543

So we can't use arbitrary fonts from installedFonts().

we only need to update the app :)

What do you mean?

If I run DB from master, installedFonts() still returns dotted font names. I don't think it should, as we have no way of using those font names anymore.

must be the difference in macOS as I dont see them on 13.5.2

justvanrossum commented 10 months ago

Ahh, that could easily be. I could perhaps make a PR that filters all dotted names. Although maybe it's not worth the effort.

still a good plan! to remove all . font names
