#MenuTitle: Assign fallback codepoints
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
__doc__="""
Assigns private-use codepoints to glyphs which are not mapped
to any Unicode codepoints.

This script will ignore glyphs:
- glyphs which are not exported
- glyphs which name starts with "."
- glyphs which name ends with ".case"
- empty glyphs
