Install this at your leisure; running these scripts won't\nmodify any existing typefaces on your system, for self-explanatory reasons.\n\n\n\nRequirements\n------------\nThese scripts rely on [FontForge](https://fontforge.github.io/) to do the heavy\nlifting, so you'll need to make sure that's installed first. You can install it\nusing [Homebrew](http://brew.sh/):\n\n    brew install fontforge\n\n\n\nOther systems\n-------------\nThis project was written with Mac OS in mind (I'm running Mavericks). If you're\ninterested in running it on another operating system, you'll need the following\nin addition to FontForge:\n\n1. Perl v5.10+\n2. Python v3.6+\n3. [GNU Make](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html)\n\nFor Windows/Cygwin, I have no idea. Have a crack at it and report any troubles.\n\n\n\nWhy?\n----\nI love the clean elegance of Monaco, but wanted nicer-looking graphs and tables\nwhen perusing terminal output. Programs like `npm` and `tree`, for example, use\nbox-drawing symbols to annotate the relationships between their contents; these\nlook weird when they're punctuated with gaps.\n\nWanting the best of both worlds, I penned these scripts to bring them together.\nObviously I could simply upload the modified typeface, but that'd be infringing\ncopyright. Since both fonts are already installed on Mac OS by default, it's an\neasy matter of running the bundled scripts with `make`.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Falhadis%2Fmenloco","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Falhadis%2Fmenloco","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Falhadis%2Fmenloco/lists"}
