;;; Commentary:
;;
;; Fontaine lets the user specify presets of font configurations and set
;; them on demand on graphical Emacs frames. The user option
;; `fontaine-presets' holds all such presets.
;;
;; Consult the manual for all the available features. And remember
;; that Fonts, Ornaments, and Neat Typography Are Irrelevant in
;; Non-graphical Emacs (FONTAINE).

"Alist of desired typographic properties.
The car of each cell is an arbitrary symbol that identifies
and/or describes the set of properties (e.g. small, reading).
A preset whose car is t is treated as the default option. This
makes it easier to specify multiple presets without duplicating
their properties. The other presets beside t act as overrides of
the defaults and, as such, need only consist of the properties
that change from the default. See the default value of this
variable for how that is done.
The cdr is a plist that specifies the typographic properties of
the faces listed in `fontaine-faces'. It also covers the
`line-spacing' variable.
For each face, Fontaine reads keywords that describe its font
family, font weight, font slant, and font height. The name of
those keywords is composed from the name of the face plus th
specifier. For example, with the `default' face, we have
`:default-family', `:default-height', `:default-weight',
`:default-slant', and `:default-width'.
The properties in more detail:
- The font family is a string that refers to the name of the
font.
- The font weight is an unquoted symbol among `fontaine-weights'.
- The font slant is an unquoted symbol among `fontaine-slants'.
- The font width is an unquoted symbol among `fontaine-widths'.
- The font height is a floating point (like 1.0) which is
interpreted as a multiple of the default font height. An
exception to this is for the `default' face (i.e. the
`:default-height'), which needs to be a natural number.
- The `:line-spacing' specifies the value of the `line-spacing'
variable.
- The `:inherit' contains the name of another named preset. This
tells the relevant Fontaine functions to get the properties of
that preset and blend them with those of the current one. The
properties of the current preset take precedence over those of
the inherited one, thus overriding them. In practice, this is
a way to have something like an extra-large preset copy the
large preset and then only modify its individual properties.
Remember that all named presets fall back to the preset whose
name is t: the `:inherit' is not a substitute for that generic
fallback but rather an extra method of specifying font
configuration presets.
Use the desired preset with the command `fontaine-set-preset'.
For detailed configuration: Info node `(fontaine) Shared and
implicit fallback values for presets'.
Caveats or further notes:
- On a Windows system, setting a `default' weight other than
`regular' or `normal' will not work. This is a limitation with
Emacs on that system.
- All the properties for `bold' and `italic' will only have a
noticeable effect if the active theme does not hardcode a
weight and a slant, but instead inherits the relevant
face (such as the `modus-themes', `ef-themes',
`standard-themes').
- Fontaine does not [yet] support Emacs' fontsets for other
scripts or character sets (e.g. Emoji). Read the documentation
in the Info node `(emacs) Modifying Fontsets'."
