It can also do other similar tricks. 4 | 5 | It was inspired by [my job](https://www.janestreet.com/technology/) involving a lot of staring at numbers in nanoseconds and trying to pick out the milliseconds or microseconds. 6 | 7 | A blog post about this and a web page to see and download pre-patched fonts should hopefully be coming soon™. 8 | 9 | ## Features 10 | 11 | - Patch any font to underline alternating groups of 3 digits in numbers 12 | - For use in proportional contexts, can also just insert fake commas with shaping 13 | - Alternatively it can squish digits and group them closer together in threes 14 | - Or some other variants, including small monospace mini-commas! 15 | 16 | ### Usage 17 | 18 | 1. Clone the repo 19 | 1. Install the FontForge Python API, on macOS I used Homebrew to do this with `brew install fontforge`, or you can use `brew bundle` 20 | 1. Install the fonttools API, I used `pip3 install fonttools` to install it in my Homebrew python3, or you can use `pip3 install -r requirements.txt` 21 | 1. Run `python3 patcher.py FONT_FILE_TO_PATCH` and look in the `out` folder 22 | 23 | You can also run `python3 patcher.py --help` and read the source to see other options. 24 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /deploy_site.sh: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | #!/bin/sh 2 | # Only works on Tristan's computer, ask him if you want the site deployed 3 | cp -r site/_site/* ~/Box/Sites/thume/numderline/ 4 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /out/.gitkeep: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/trishume/numderline/e09528699a1bca52ce5e2d22a019dfdd034808ca/out/.gitkeep -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /patcher.py: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # Based on https://github.com/powerline/fontpatcher/blob/develop/scripts/powerline-fontpatcher 2 | # Used under the MIT license 3 | 4 | import argparse 5 | import sys 6 | import re 7 | import subprocess 8 | import os.path 9 | import json 10 | import shutil 11 | import zipfile 12 | 13 | from itertools import chain 14 | from collections import defaultdict 15 | 16 | try: 17 | import fontforge 18 | import psMat 19 | # from fontTools.misc.py23 import * 20 | from fontTools.ttLib import TTFont 21 | from fontTools.feaLib.builder import addOpenTypeFeatures, Builder 22 | except ImportError: 23 | sys.stderr.write('The required FontForge and fonttools modules could not be loaded.\n\n') 24 | sys.stderr.write('You need FontForge with Python bindings for this script to work.\n') 25 | sys.exit(1) 26 | 27 | 28 | def get_argparser(ArgumentParser=argparse.ArgumentParser): 29 | parser = ArgumentParser( 30 | description=('Font patcher for Numderline.

Numderline

101 | 102 |

103 | Numderline is a font patcher that uses OpenType font shaping trickery to make it easier to visually parse large numbers. It has multiple variants for different preferences, fonts and contexts. 104 |

105 |

106 | I (Tristan Hume) was inspired to build this by my job at Jane Street involving staring at a lot of large numbers, mostly latencies in nanoseconds, and wanting to pick out larger quantities like milliseconds and microseconds. 107 |
