[Sugar-devel] fun with fonts

Taking inspiration from the GSoC Font Editor project, I wrote a Glyph
editor in Turtle Blocks.

The script, glif2tb2.py, converts a .glif file into a Turtle Blocks project
that can be rendered and edited. The basic idea is to create a turtle for
each knot and control point and to render the glyph by connecting the
turtles. If the turtles are dragged, the glyph is modified. See [1] for
details and try running [2].
