Good to see there's some interest!
This is a simple, working proof-of-concept, but there's really not much left to do before I can release a v0.1. Stay tuned (it will be FOSS).
Building a @glyphsapp plugin that lists languages your font doesn’t support yet. Add missing glyphs for any language in a click!
I’ve been imagining a tool like this ever since @rosetta published their Hyperglot Python library, which powers this tool.
🔎 We have soft-launched Hyperglot v2 today. To be properly announced next week, but here you go. Don’t tell anyone. :)

Thanks to everyone who tested it and provided feedback.
Even if you’re not sure about wanting to sign up for a newsletter about an outdated machine, perhaps you would enjoy a documentary film about an outdated machine? ;-)
For one week only, I am giving away a free digital copy of our 2012 film, “Linotype: The Film” just for signing up for the newsletter!
No codes, no tricks, no DRM, just a free copy of the film that you can download and enjoy on any platform and device.
After making “Linotype: The Film” over a decade ago, Doug Wilson is back with the Linotype Book Project to research and write a book which expands on the dramatic impact of the Linotype on journalism, communication, and all of society. Follow along by joining the members-only newsletter to get behind-the-scenes access while the book is being created.
