+
+This script requires FontTools/TTX to extract the font name from the font file itself, which is obviously highly important to the script's operation.
+
+You can rename as many font files as you like. Separate them with spaces only, not commas. On OS X, it's easiest to simply drag all your files into Terminal from the Finder.
+
+Font format can be ttf (TrueType), or otf (OpenType). FontTools/TTX apparently also works with Type 1 fonts, but I haven't tested this.
