(BBut my fonts-config script also lets you use 'hand-tweaked' files if
(Byou want. The script checks whether fonts.scale.* files exist and
(Bmerges these into the automatically generated fonts.scale file. It
(Bdeletes all automatically generated entries for fonts which have
(Bmanual entries in any fonts.scale.* file, i.e. the manual entries have
(Bhigher priority. That means if you want to use 'hand-tweaked' entries
(Bfor a font foo.ttf, you can add those into a file called
(Bfonts.scale.jungshik. If there is at least one manual entry for
(Bfoo.ttf in a fonts.scale.* file, no automatic entries will be created
(Bfor foo.ttf, i.e. if you want to use manual entries for foo.ttf, you
(Bhave to supply all of them you need.
