[Fontforge-devel] endign of scripts

[Werner L. <wl...@gn...>]

George,


I've only 256MByte main memory, and the generation of the Big 5
subfonts needs a *huge* amount of memory, which is expected.  What I
don't expect is that FontForge needs a bigger amount of time to exit
(after the last subfont has been generated) than for reading the font
and creating the subfonts altogether!

There seems to be a kind of recursive memory deallocation of all
arrays which causes endless swapping.  Can you avoid this?  It is
probably sufficient to call a brute-force `exit()' or even `_exit()'
in case fontforge is invoked non-interactively on the command line
with a `-script' option.
