Pango

The Pango guide is where text layout and font-related Python conveniences should be documented.

Font descriptions

Pango.FontDescription should support the obvious Python-facing construction and display patterns, including string-based construction and readable reprs.

Iterable text structures

Several Pango types are easier to use when documented as iterable or collection-like values, especially:

• TabArray
• AttrList

Named return values

Layout and cursor-position APIs often return structured data. In ginext, the goal is that those results should be easier to read than raw anonymous tuples, so this page should document the expected named-result shapes.
