CleaningScripts-for-GL2.3

Set of scripts for Glyphs 2.3 for Designiq.

Config JSONs

Some features requires external config filen in JSON format top specifi ligatures to work with etc. Scripts checks if there is cleaningscripts_config.json by side of script file. If so, the file is loaded as general config and is used when no font specific json is located. Good to store some general cleaning settings. You can use cleaningscripts_config.json as a master for both situations - general config file and specific font config file. Make a copy to the same folder as the font You want to process by script and rename json file to the font name. And keep the .json suffix of course.

This way, You can have special config for every font You want to process.
