  An additional hurdle is that I now have to use the full path to a script when I run it in the VS Code command line (rather than the relative path, which previously worked). Will update if I can figure out how to configure that in a VS Code "Task." Oh, hmm. Ha, after chasing that problem a bit, it seems like the last issue may have been a little bug with VS Code. Once I modified the tasks.json file and restarted, the task started working only once I reverted to how it was before my changes. So, maybe I just had to restart VS Code? In any event, I now have it working again!

  With UFO the starting point (first point in the contour list of points) is not always a on curve point. As a UFO just makes a loop. The symbol for direction of a contour looks very strange when its attached on a off curve point. So yes after 40 years being one, you'll have two now! This change in the recently in RF4.2. And is important to visualise the data correctly. The conversion between quad/cubic should maintain the startpoint if it was an on curve. (an issue to fix is being made)

  I tried both .glif in RF and they work fine. Was it maybe a sync issue with git? Did you have to solve any diff conflict?

  The file in your bin folder is a symbolic link to a file inside the app bundle. If you remove the app the symbolic link will not work anymore...
