Vollkorn is a quiet, modest and well working body copy typeface for bread
and butter use. It has dark and meaty serifs and a bouncing and healthy look
and might be used as body type as well as for headlines or titles. More than
2000 glyphs per font support a wide range of languages in Latin, Cyrillic
and Greek scripts.
"Vollkorn" [pronounced "follkorn"] is German for "wholemeal". It refers to
the old term "Brotschrift" [literally "bread type"] which described the
small fonts for every day use in the days of hand-compositing.
Vollkorn came into being as Friedrich Althausen's first type designing
attempt during his studies at Bauhaus University Weimar, Germany. The
Regular style was initially published in 2005 under a Creative Commons
license. When GoogleFonts launched in 2010 Vollkorn was one the first
twenty featured fonts.

other than the usual "python3/<blank>" python version selection and
remove setting MODPY_VERSION=${MODPY_DEFAULT_VERSION_3} again from the
affected ports.
if a port needs 2.x then set MODPY_VERSION=${MODPY_DEFAULT_VERSION_2}.
This commit doesn't change any versions currently used; it may be that
some ports have MODPY_DEFAULT_VERSION_2 but don't require it, those
should be cleaned up in the course of updating ports where possible.
Python module ports providing py3-* packages should still use
FLAVOR=python3 so that we don't have a mixture of dependencies some
using ${MODPY_FLAVOR} and others not.
UW ttyp0 is a family of bitmap programmer's fonts. It covers most of the Latin
and Cyrillic alphabet, Greek, Armenian, Georgian (only Mkhedruli), Hebrew
(without cantillation marks), Thai, most of IPA (but no UPA), standard
punctuation, common symbols, some mathematics, line graphics, a few dingbats,
and Powerline delimiter symbols.
ok sthen@, Manuel Giraud (who ported the same font) is also fine with it.
The new structure is required for switching to TTC fonts, but it will also make
adding different Iosevka variants easier.
bentely@ convinced me to drop the -fonts suffix on the PKGNAME as it's
redundant and isn't part of the project's actual name.
OK bentley@, thanks!
