No where could i find in the fontforge manual/google how to do this. I see CopyReference(); command and ReplaceWithReference(); but i tried this without any luck.\r\nSo what am i doing wrong here?\r\nHow can make \"Dcommaaccent\" reference \"D\" and then use my command: AddAccent(\"uni0326\", 0x100);\r\n\r\nThis needs to be scripted (ff language, no python), not manual hand labour. What order of commands would i execute to achieve what i want? Cant be that hard but i guess im still a fontforge newbie :P\r\n\r\nThanks in advance!\r\n"}}
