Hi Werner,

Thanks, ftview is a great help. However it does not display
NotoColorEmoji-Regular.ttf

Here is the origin of the file exactly:


paul@paul-LinuxBox:~/git/fonts$ cat .git/config

        filemode = true
        bare = false

        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
[branch "main"]
        remote = origin
        merge = refs/heads/main
paul@paul-LinuxBox:~/git/fonts$ ls -la ofl/notocoloremoji
