[Pharo-users] Can one use freetype fonts with Roassal?

2019-09-21 Thread Mark Miller
I'm interested in using Pharo to do a math presentation, by which I mean I'd like to show some algebra in process. I'm using a Mac (macOS Mojave), and Pharo 7. I've settled upon Roassal2 as a good package to use for this, as I'd like to arrange characters, and possibly do a little animation, and ma

My issue is that this covenant is selectively applied to some things, but not others. The wording might change, but the cultural attitude will prevail on how it gets "enforced". Again, the best thing to do is simply keep it neutral and anything not related to pharo get thrown out as "off-topic". H
