Glyph name syntax

mathieu-christe · Nov 4, 2013, 5:29 PM

Hi!

For a project, I need to add an alternate version of an accent, say grave, which I've named grave.alt.

I'm using uppercase versions of accents to build uppercase accented glyphs, which I usually name with the suffix .uc. The uppercase version of grave is then grave.uc.

My question is, how do I name the uppercase version of an alternate version of an accent?

In my case, shall I name it grave.uc.alt? Is it safe for a project in development, to double suffixes? If not, what would you recommend as best practise?

Thanks for your help, best,

Mathieu Christe

Good evening Frederik,

Thanks for the clarification, back to building my system!

Hi Mathieu

it doesn't really matter, just make a system that makes it easy for you to search and find subsets by suffixes.
