I’m working on Zifmia and needed to reimplement some of the font styles (bold, italcs) that I had removed from the FyreVM engine. I decided to build a series of font objects in I7 that could be used in text. The code below is a work in progress and I’m looking for comments on making it cleaner, safer, and simple to use.
This extension does not necessarily need FyreVM or Zifmia. If you plan to output your code to Quixe and have your own javascript code, the resulting markup can be reformatted (RegEx) to CSS or HTML. Of course Zarf will eventually offer a CSS implementation within Glulx that will supercede my font extension (and do much more), but I’m only focused on font usage. I still believe windowing, text position, and similar things are better served contextually through UI components. In any case, the code is below…comments are welcome.
