[gcompris-devel] Font handling

[JAZEIX Johnny]

Hi,

the problem is to list files in the rcc. Once the rcc is created and in 
the package, we don't know which files are inside.

I just thought that we can add a text file in the rcc we know the name 
and which list all the fonts we have besides. It won't be automatic (if 
someone does its own fonts.rcc he will have to update manually this file 
but is there a reason to do its own rcc and not put the fonts in the 
directories where Qt will look for them ?) but there will be no more the 
font names on the code.

I can try to do a fonts.rcc like this:
* fonts.txt
* Andika.ttf
* OpenDyslexic.otf

Do you prefer it to be an external rcc (like the voices) or included by 
default rcc (like activities) ?

If it is an external rcc, can we still set the Andika font by default 
(if the user can't download it, another default one will be used).
When do we propose the user to download them ?
* At first launching only (but if he wants after for another reason, he 
wno't be able to get them)
* Button in configuration (like for the voices downloading : "download 
extra voices") ?

If it is an included, it will be easier for me :-).
