In the introduction, on the Web site on FontForge, I read:

Er... What is a font editor?

A font editor is a progam designed to creat and modify fonts.

    In the same page, scrolled a bit down, under the heading "Postscript", there is an indented set of sections, the 4th of which begins with this sentence:

    Most recently Adobe has provide a means to control the counters, the spaces between stems, in a glyph.

    In the page:
    http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/ref-caveats.html
    there is the double sentence:

    FontForge can also break an outline into smaller segments and place those in subroutines these may be shared more easily among glyphs.

    which should be 2 sentences indeed.

    It's a pity that you cannot modify text here. The initial text,
    and comment #1 refer to the web page:
    http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/overview.html

    In the web page:
    http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/overview.html
    we find 3 errors (if, was lookups):

    GPOS and GSUB

    Up till now I have spoken as there were one list of lookups. That was a simplification. There are two broad classes of lookup, and two lists.
