Font::TTF::OldMort(3)

✨ NAME ✨

Font::TTF::OldMort — Glyph Metamorphosis table in a font. This page is from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, bestie, and it’s all about that table.

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Okay so there’s literally no extra description text here — the NAME already gave you the whole Glyph Metamorphosis table in a font vibe. The actual detail starts in INSTANCE VARIABLES, so let’s go 🦋.

🧚 INSTANCE VARIABLES 🧚

Here’s the field-by-field tea ☕ — all the names and values stay exactly as the original lists them.

• version — table version number (Fixed: currently 1.0)
• chains — list of metamorphosis chains, each of which has its own fields:
  • defaultFlags — chain's default subfeature flags (UInt32)
  • featureEntries — list of feature entries, each of which has fields:
    • type
    • setting
    • enable
    • disable
  • subtables — list of metamorphosis subtables, each of which has fields:
    • type — subtable type (0: rearrangement; 1: contextual substitution; 2: ligature; 4: non-contextual substitution; 5: insertion)
    • direction — processing direction ('LR' or 'RL')
    • orientation — applies to text in which orientation ('VH', 'V', or 'H')
    • subFeatureFlags — the subfeature flags controlling whether the table is used (UInt32)
    • Further fields depend on the type of subtable:
      • Rearrangement table:
        • classes — array of lists of glyphs
        • states — array of arrays of hashes{'nextState', 'flags'}
      • Contextual substitution table:
        • classes — array of lists of glyphs
        • states — array of array of hashes{'nextState', 'flags', 'actions'}, where actions is an array of two elements which are offsets to be added to [marked, current] glyph to get index into mappings (or undef if no mapping to be applied)
        • mappings — list of glyph codes mapped to through the state table mappings
      • Ligature table: — no extra fields are listed here in the original
      • Non-contextual substitution table: — no extra fields are listed here in the original
      • Insertion table: — no extra fields are listed here in the original

🛠️ METHODS 🛠️

💖 $t->read

Reads the table into memory. That’s the whole assignment, bestie.

💖 $t->out($fh)

Writes the table to a file either from memory or by copying. Both routes are in the original, so we keep both.

💖 $t->print($fh)

Prints a human-readable representation of the table. Very “let me see the table with my own eyes” energy.

💀 BUGS 💀

None known. That’s it — the original says None known, periodt.
