I kind of like the idea, but I'm not sure what the UI would look like? Is
it the option of choosing the same font for multiple purposes that is
attractive?
I also do something like:
Preferences addBooleanPreference: #ScanAtStartup categories: #(FreeType)
default: false balloonHelp: 'select to rescan the font folder during
startup' .
Along with:
FreeTypeFontProvider>>startUp: resuming
Preferences ScanAtStartup ifFalse: [^self].
resuming
ifTrue:[
self current updateFromSystem]
Just so I don't have to wait for it to scan my font folder during start up
each time.
So...I guess I managed to figure out SOMETHING about Preferences, but I
don't know how to add other UI elements like radio buttons, drop down lists,
etc... which would be useful in this case.
If it is really something that you think would be useful, I'll give it a
shot if anyone can point me towards some Preferences examples that would be
similar, otherwise, I'll just keep loading my "Personalization" package
that, upon loading, executes "Personalize fonts"!
