Well, i think you guys will find a solution.
It makes me think of the "pidip" installation, which we will come to
at a point, since it uses Fonts, too.
I just wanted to remind you, that that's a similar problem and maybe
can be solved with this one.
So: about the bdiag~:
So for now, we could just exclude it , but how do you do that with
the build-system ?
I would like to keep going and check all the others. How do i do
that ?
Hi,
i got a new job as osx admin (among others) for a while now, and we
are
using a particular font as "corporate design". so to ease my job
for new
osx clients, i made a .pkg that installs the fonts to /Library/Fonts.
the fonts work rightaway without needing to restart or recache (just
like windowsxp)
if you dont want to install fonts to system library (eg. you dont
want
to use admin rights) you can allso install the fonts to ~/Library/
Fonts
but the coolest would be to be able to use the fonts from inside
the pd
dir, without touching any system configs or dirs. but i dont know if
thats possible.
(like pdf uses embedded fonts, but i assume that pdf doesnt use the
system font render system ?)
cheers

Good point, Pd-extended is already using an installer on Windows, so
it can just install the font in the proper location, %SYSTEMROOT%
\Fonts
That leaves Mac OS X, which is tricky since it needs to be inside
the
Mac OS X .app package.

On Windows installing the font with a batch file would be trivial.
If you made some file "Install.bat" it could copy the font to the
correct directory, and also run the registry script you currently
use,
at the same time.

I don't think you can't do this but it's possible to put a
specific
font into the X server fonts directory, and doing a font mapping
like in this neat tcl-tk application:

also you might be interested by this:

On Debian and Ubuntu, it'll be very easy to support since the
Bitstream Vera Sans Mono font is in the package system. I think
that
font is also included in any GNOME install, so that covers most
GNU/
Linux users.
The hard part is Windows and Mac OS X. We could require people to
install the font seperately, but I'd rather have it just work
out of
the box.

If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an
idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he
keeps
it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into
the possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess
himself of it. - Thomas Jefferson
