Okay great! I guess the HD hardware failure caused the Ubuntu problem. I
hope you didn't lose any data this time either! XD

This looks great for 1.0!! :D

To simplify the add contours part, let's forget curves for now, and just
allow for straight lines only.

Please forget about adding arbitrary new glyphs for 1.0.

Once the user can add straight line contours, the user can make a new
font, draw a some squarish letters in a monospaced design, and export it,
and activate it, and then use their font in the write activity.

Once that works, I suggest to halt writing new code and work on the .xo
packaging so we can start user testing.

While Eli and I do user testing, I suggest you work on the code
documentation, and the travis build checking, and other 'non code'
development tasks.
