ToDo
Idea is to create a simple interface (cli,gui & web) to have a font conversion utility.. combining all existing foss convertors.. where basically the different convertors written in perl/C/python/php could be used to convert from font to unicode & vice versa.. this could be inthe form of command line tool, and with a simple gui (gtk/qt) & also for web gateways.. to have a single point solution for conversion & a standalone tool for conversion.
Base tool/scripts will be cli based, around which a gui+web wrapper can be written.
- An simple gui interface, where file to convert is given & font encoding selected to give output file.
- collect all convertors (foss ones) in one place.
