A Julia way to install/update the font about juliamono HOT 10 CLOSED

looks like it's in the process of being added

Actually, with the merge of Homebrew/homebrew-cask-fonts#2290, it's already available for installation. One just needs to do:

$ brew tap homebrew/cask-fonts
$ brew cask install font-juliamono

from juliamono.

Ooo, looks like it's in the process of being added:

% brew search JuliaMono

It would be pretty easy to just put this font into a jll. That way, it should be pretty easy to embed, if you want to use it in GTK.jl, for example. At least on linux, you should then be able to just symlink that to ~/fonts to install them on your system.

You can find an initial prototype for the installer here: https://github.com/simeonschaub/JuliaMono.jl. Currently only works on Linux and I am still not sure, if that's really the correct way to do this, but it's a start.

can confirm it works

I think this might be possible. Although, writing scripts to install fonts on all possible OSs sounds like a fairly significant job, with good knowledge of OS-level scripting, security, etc... Obviously the Pkg wizards could do it, but I couldn't.
