However, when I have encountered problems and have happened to mention that on these forums, your last couple of responses have come across as incredibly patronising. For example, the needless caps and the whole "check your work carefully" is totally unnecessary here. I'm not a 10 year old kid, and speaking to me like one isn't really an endearing trait.
I appreciate that this may not have been your intention, but this last post of yours in particular really did not come over well to me at all.
Allow me to elaborate - for the record, yes, I have installed Python, and yes, I did so BEFORE installing the font add-in. I know I've installed it, as the first hack I installed was the screensaver hack, and that requires Python to be installed in order for it to work (at least, it does if you wish to use the 'Cover' function, which is why I installed it at that point). For reference, the screensaver hack works fine on my KV.
Moreover, the instructions you linked to are the ones I was following to try and install the font hack. The specific problem I encountered was the font files I'd copied (into the linkfonts/fonts folder) would not appear under the "Custom" sub-menu, after selecting "Font Overrides > Populate this menu". Nor did they appear under any of the custom or amazon menus, as it happens. I also followed the advice of hitting "Font Overrides > ** Refresh **" when the menu didn't populate (even though I don't have a heavy KUAL extensions folder, nor a lot of custom fonts), and that didn't work either. Other than those suggestions, there was nothing else stated in the instructions as a possible solution to this problem.
After going back through the instructions again (twice in fact), to make sure I hadn't missed anything, I was still unable to get this hack to work on 5.8.5. Now, is it
possible that I am still making some kind of user error? Absolutely it is, although I've done my level best to find it thus far. However, if this hack's failure to work on my KV is because of me, it isn't because I haven't checked my work thoroughly.
