[g-i] Stripping code in ttf-freefont, do we still need it?

[Christian Perrier]

At this moment, ttf-freefont uses some code to strip fonts in the
udeb:

        chmod u+x ./convertfonts.sh
        ./convertfonts.sh
        # Strip the fonts for the udeb
        chmod u+x ./stripfonts.sh
        chmod u+x scripts/FreeSans-strip
        chmod u+x scripts/ConvertFont
        ./stripfonts.sh

Scripts are at the end of this mail....

Eddy, Davide, are these scripts still useful or are they redundant
with font stripping that may be planned in the g-i build system? They
hardcode the kept (or excluded?) ranges which sounds not really
scalable to me.

stripfonts.sh:

#!/bin/sh

STRIPFONT=`pwd`/scripts/FreeSans-strip
SRC="TTF"
TARGET="TTF-stripped"
FONTPAT="FreeSans*.ttf"
test ! -d ${TARGET} && mkdir ${TARGET}

FONTS=`cd ${SRC} && find . -name "${FONTPAT}"`
for font in ${FONTS}; do
        echo $font
        (cd ${TARGET} && ${STRIPFONT} ../${SRC}/${font} $font)
done

FreeSans-strip:

#! /bin/bash

exepath=$(dirname $0)
strip=$exepath/strip_glyphs.pe

if [ $# -ne 2 ] ; then
        echo "Usage: $(basename $0) fontfile_in fontfile_out"
        exit 0
fi

if [ ! -x "$strip" ] ; then
        echo "Script not found: $strip"
        exit 1
fi

if [ ! -f "$1" ] ; then
        echo "File does not exist: $1"
        exit 1
fi
if [ -z "$2" ] ; then
        echo "You need to specify the output file"
        exit 1
fi
