This separates auto-generated code from manually created code. We need a more recent version of browserify to directly require JSON. Note that the data was copied, not recreated, so it has not been changed. This addresses issue #301.

### How to generate new metrics
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
There are several requirements for generating the metrics used by KaTeX.
|
|
|
|
- You need to have an installation of TeX which supports kpathsea. You can check
|
|
this by running `tex --version`, and seeing if it has a line that looks like
|
|
> kpathsea version 6.2.0
|
|
|
|
- You need the JSON module for perl. You can install this either from CPAN or with
|
|
your package manager.
|
|
|
|
- You need the python fontforge module. This is probably either installed with
|
|
fontforge or can be installed from your package manager.
|
|
|
|
Once you have these things, run
|
|
|
|
make metrics
|
|
|
|
which should generate new metrics and place them into `fontMetricsData.json`.
|
|
You're done!
