About
Chenyuluoyan is a handwritten font created as a school independent-learning project, with the handwriting provided by Wei-Chen and font processing by the project creator. This Homebrew cask installs two specific files: ChenYuluoyan-2. and ChenYuluoyan-Thin-Monospaced..
- The regular-proportioned file is the Thin 2.0 release; the other file is the Thin monospaced release.
- The project describes the font as handwritten and provides examples of its use.
- The project states that it is released under the SIL Open Font License 1.1, which permits use, sharing, and modification under that license’s terms.
- The monospaced file is a distinct option; the project notes it as an alternative where a monospaced version is needed.
Install the cask with brew install --cask font-chenyuluoyan. After installation, select the installed font by name in a compatible application’s font menu. This installs font files, not an application. The cask installs only the two files listed above, not every possible release or variant of the family.
