Ones with tonos put the accent to the left of the letter rather than
above it, which makes for a rather squashed Omega. In real teletext,
the tonos is put in the character cell to the left, but I don't know
if that can be coded in Unicode properly. Maybe I need a silly
multiple substitution for a space followed by an capital with tonos.
Now each column represents one column in the Unicode code charts, with
entirely empty columns suppressed. Unencoded characters are packed in
at the end.
After all, we do rather need the full font. Admittedly, we don't need
the 14 copies tht Ghostscript 9.18 puts in, but this still somehow
makes the file smaller.
This has th unfortunate effect of changing the FontName of Bedstead
Semi Condensed from Bedstead-Semicondensed to Bedstead-SemiCondensed.
The former name was an error.
Apart from main(), of course. Everything else is now file-scoped at
most. This is more consistent, and might allow for more
optimisations (if I ever used -O).
The cleanup itself is good, but emit_paths() will need enhancement.
At the moment, it assumes that all paths are closed, so it doesn't
matter where on a path it starts emitting it. With an open path,
though, it's important to emit it starting at one end, so there will
have to be a mechanism for distinguishing open from closed paths and
behaving accordingly.
It was obviously wrong that the <ul> on the Bedstead Web page had
circular bullets. The current CSS Lists and Counters working draft,
<http://www.w3.org/TR/2014/WD-css-lists-3-20140320/>, allows for setting
the bullet to a string, and Firefox 54 supports this, so use it in the
CSS for Bedstead's Web page.
The names of the widths now track those in the OpenType 'OS/2' table, so
the former condensed and semicondensed are now ultra-condensed and
extra-condensed, and there are new condensed and semi-condensed widths
to fill the gaps. Also, the fonts are named more consistently with
Adobe's practice: "Bedstead Semi Condensed" and so forth.
The new Bedstead Condensed makes a pretty decent terminal font, which is
a nice side-effect.
I've reduced the size of the bidental percussive in general since it
seems to be based on the dental diacritic. Having done that, it fits
in the x-height, which is sensible since IPA is generally lower-case,
and then it seems sensible to make the bilabial percussive fit in the
x-height too.
