What

  • As a follow-up to Added defaultLanguage to font objects #194, this PR enables a global fontkit.setDefaultLanguage(lang) method.
  • Fonts will use the global language property, unless you explicitly override it via font.setDefaultLanguage(lang)
  • If a font property isn't available in the given language, it will attempt to find a backup language to use. For example, it will look for defaultLanguage, then "en", then just whatever is first.
  • Additionally, unit tests were added for fontkit.setDefaultLanguage as well as font.setDefaultLanguage

FYI, I analyzed all the included fonts, and Amiri was the only font that included an alternate language ("ar" Arabic). Very glad to find this font to test with!

@devongovett I matured this defaultLanguage approach a lot, and added unit tests! What do you think?
