JSesh API change - important question for developpers

[rosmord]

If you look at the development branch, you will see that I am making a lot of changes.

In particular, there are a lot of configuration settings which were implicit and become explicit. It's a bit less programmer-friendly, but it makes the code clearer and will potentially reduce the risk of bugs.

Now, I still want the developper to be able to create a new JSesh editor by typing:

JMDCEditor ed = new JMDCEditor();

and using the default constructor.

my question is the following:

What hieroglyphic font should the system use when creating default components ?

There are three possibilities :

1. use only the simple embedded font (800 sign). The rendering is not very good;
2. use the standard JSesh font if available, and the embedded font in other cases;
3. use the standard JSesh font, plus user defined signs from the configuration of the JSesh software.

The last case may seem a good idea, but if you build a software using JSesh as a library, it means that the behaviour of this software will change when you make changes in the preferences of JSesh.app. Which might be disturbing.

I will document how you can customize your components, anyway.
