Description Behdad Esfahbod 2007-10-30 16:21:53 UTC

it will take a dir or filename, scan all fonts in there, and list them pretty much like fc-list does, or fc-cat does, but without caching them.  Useful for packaging fonts, etc.

Comment 1 Keith Packard 2008-01-13 17:06:47 UTC

I'd love to see the code for this enhancement...

It doesn't handle directories as directory recursion is tricky and fontconfig doesn't provide any functions to do that for us :P.  There's always find(1).

Comment 3 Nicolas Spalinger 2008-11-01 12:26:36 UTC

Sounds very useful. But I can't seem to build it. Is this on track for 2.7?

I believe I've fixed this in 2.7.0.  Please reopen otherwise.
