[fontforge-users] FF still exiting abruptly

[Clair Dunn]

FF is once again acting up.

Just now it did. And so I started it up from the terminal because that
worked yesterday.

However, it is not helping today. Below is the terminal feedback which
appeared on starting from the terminal:

Hi

Thanks for this! I'm sorry to say I'm not sure what to advise. You could
try removing the fontforge prefs directory (by renaming it out of the way)
to see if that helps

cd; mv .fontforge .fontforge-old
