Oops, that should have been dump_intfield() and dump_floatfield()
respectively.

Here is an example with a font that has a fractional italicangle:

    file = "AntykwaTorunska-Italic.otf"
    info = fontloader.info (file)
    data = fontloader.open (file)
    print(info.italicangle, data.italicangle)

Output:

    -9  -9.5
