Font Ligaturizer

Adding programming ligatures from FiraCode to any font

Usage

Simply execute ligaturize.py with a font file. This script is currently hardcoded to use ./ligature-source/firacode as the source for ligatures.

python3 ligaturize.py ./sample/DejaVuSansMono.ttf

The resulting font will add 'Liga` as a suffix eg: ./sample/DejaVuSansMonoLiga.ttf

Optionally, you can provide an output file name as a second parameter if you wish however, this will not change the name of the resulting font:

python3 ligaturize.py ./sample/DejaVuSansMono.ttf ./sample/ModifiedDejaVuSansMono.ttf

Requirements

This script requires FontForge python bindings. For Debian/Ubuntu they are available in python-fontforge package.
