What feature does fontaine > offer, tht cursory doesn't have? Cursory ultimately applies configurations to variables such as 'cursor-type' and 'blink-cursor-delay'. Whereas Fontaine changes the typographic attributes of faces like 'default' and 'fixed-pitch'. By "typographic attributes", I mean the ':family', ':height', ':weight'. > Could that feature be added as an option to cursory? I think it is better to keep the two feature sets separate. It makes things easier to maintain and more straightforward to document. I can, however, update the documentation in each package to reference the other. -- Protesilaos Stavrou https://protesilaos.com
