Some time ago, Paul V. suggested:
In other words, you're talking about `texmf/fonts/pk/modeless/gsftopk/adobe...'.
How about considering instead `texmf/fonts/pk/modeless/adobe...'? I really
don't see a need to separate font files by who created them. If somebody
wants to delete all the pk files created by gsftopk, let them blow away
the whole modeless tree; things will reappear automagically. Or, it's
possible to write a utility to read the pk files for specials indicating
which program created the pk file.
Did we reach a conclusion on this?
I'm not sure what I think. I admist it is appealing to make `modeless'
just be a mode, instead of having to special case the whole tree
underneath. And I suspect most sites will use only one of ps2pk or
gsftopk, not both. So maybe it will fly ...
wdyt?
After we reach consensus on this, I will make another pre-release 0.9992
for our editing pleasure. Then I think one more public release, 0.9999,
then after some time 1.0, if that sounds ok to all ...
