A snippet to determine how much horizontal shift a point should get in an italic glyph, in a UFO font.
"""
Here’s a snippet to determine how much horizontal shift a point should get in an italic glyph.
In practical terms, I have just used this to shift anchors in a UFO font source, in order to prepare an oblique font.
Basically, how can we determine "x" below, given a height ("y") and an angle (italicAngle)?

Font "package manager"

I've been thinking about creating a font management service similar to traditional software package managers (e.g. Debian Aptitude, NPM, etc.)

The basic idea is this:

  1. There's a main repository of fonts that are free (as in free to distribute) that the working group hosts
  2. There's a small program that serves as the "manager", to be used or installed on client systems
  3. The "manager" can be configured to operate with multiple repositories

Youtube Format IDs

Also known as itag or format codes and way back they could be specified with the fmt parameter (e.g. &fmt=22). Depending on the age and/or popularity of the video, not all formats will be available.

Big list of http static server one-liners

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.
