RE: [Pythoncard-users] cascading style sheets (CSS) guide

[Kevin A. <al...@se...>]

Are we trying to be CSS-like or have people be able to copy an existing CSS
font-family description and use it in PythonCard?

The original
{ font-family: "New Century Schoolbook", Times, serif }

what I tested...

Test('"New Century Schoolbook", Times, serif')

produces

<"New Century Schoolboo", Times, serif>
['New Century Schoolboo', ',', 'Times,', 'serif']

My brain is too tired right now to grok what I need to do in the method that
sets the font facename and/or family, so I'll look at this again tomorrow. I
know I have to iterate through the list, but...
