I've been down a rabbit hole the last couple of weeks with Apple's ancient Font Editor 2.0 (1984), the first font editor I ever used on a Mac. This is the pre-PostScript era of bitmap fonts like Chicago, Geneva, and New York. I wound up making a user guide and a video demo, which you can watch here: https://youtu.be/rOwzfaTU0XA?si=QDwZDFvE8pl9-9Kq
@marksimonson Mark, this is amazing. But i only boost posts with alt text on their images (aka "image description). Can you please take the time to write some? Should be able to edit the post. Ta.
@marksimonson So great, thank you for the reminder.
Forgive me if you mention it in your video, since I haven't had time to watch it yet, but I was also fond of the mini version built directly into ResEdit:
@marksimonson What a wonderful video clearly showcasing the experience of tasks in 1980s on the Mac along with several gotchas.
I faintly recall using ResEdit to change the Finder’s “Cancel/Okay” to “Nah/Sure” system wide because why not, but I my may be misremembering. Good times.
