I don't think there are tools to detect these problems, at least not until we have soem pretty impressive advances in the AI field - most of these problems are use-dependent (a proportional font is obviously not broken on a technical level, just not very usable for terminals, for example). Problems can be subtle - for example, your font might have a double-width character for a codepoint that your libc says must fit into a single column. -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -----==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ----==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ ____ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / schm...@schmorp.de -=====/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ _______________________________________________ rxvt-unicode mailing list rxvt-unicode@lists.schmorp.de http://lists.schmorp.de/mailman/listinfo/rxvt-unicode
