Hello!
Could it be a good idea to add a test macro to nfssfont.tex to check
the use of glyphs from the TextCompanion encoding?
nfssfont.tex is the only (?) choice to see in table form the contents
of a TeX font. Some macros are there that set normal ASCII text, some
use funny diacritic characters, and \names substitutes in first names
the ASCII characters by 'extended' look-alikes. Since the names are
still recognized you can see whether the font's definitions to create
these glyphs really work well. What's missing is a macro that uses the
Old Style digits, fractions, currencies etc.
Would it make sense to add such a test macro? What could it look like?
