Er... Nevermind. I didn't read your email fully and missed all the parts
about "non-opentype/non-truetype fonts". *grin*
However, the script still doesn't generate fonts.scale for those "other" fonts.
And if I'm not incorrect, PostScript Type 1 fonts require fonts.scale, too.
In any case, I know 'mkfontscale' will put shit about Type 1 fonts into
fonts.scale. That's sayin' something, at least.
Okay, I'm done now,
Derek
PS: Aren't the other font extensions '.bdf', '.pcf', '.pcf.gz', '.pfa',
'.pfb', '.t1a', '.afm' (other Type 1 extensions include '.mmm' and a few others
I can't remember, but if those are lyin' around, they should have corresponding
'.pfa', '.pfb', or '.t1a' files, I think)? Why don't you test for those
extensions instead of just test whether or not the directory is empty. Then
again, I suppose that's a lot o' test-cases, so maybe "directory not empty" is
good enough. *grin*
PPS: In the end, I have a feeling that "mkfontdir $d && mkfontscale $d" would
be much better than a bunch of test conditions for TTF vs. OTF vs. Other (at
least, "theoretically". *smile*
PPPS: What's so experimental about 'find' instead of 'ls | grep'?
