Hi MarcosQui and other authors,
Is this possible to have a better naming (and consistent usages) for fonts in folder fonts? I found it to be a mess (maybe because I dont know what they are for, and how they are used in the skin):
* Some of them named pretty good, such as aeon_main.ttf, aeon_setting.ttf, but others are weird: aeon_main_ce.ttf, aeon_settings_cy.ttf, scout.ttf, swisaeon.ttf. If this possible to have them all named in a better manner? This can be easily done by a grep or find and sed in unix, but I dont want to do that everytime I update the skin.
* More importantly, lots of them are not used (as indicated in 720p/Fonts.xml). For example, in 2-2.1.1, there are 46 fonts in folder fonts, but only 21 fonts are used in 720p/Fonts.xml. I tried deleting the rest of 25 fonts and XBMC runs just fine without any problem.
The reason why I ask for this request is because fonts used in aeon (and your mod) are not fully unicode supported (for example for Vietnamese). I normally have to replace default fonts with my own set of fonts.
Thanks,
D.
