Working with Font Classes in FontLab Studio Using Python

Posts: 12
Has anyone out here written python to add and remove classes in FontLab Studio? Or know of somewhere this has been done successfully? The "classes" property of the font is supposed to be a list of strings, but I cannot seem to append new strings. Any examples would be much appreciated!

I did find one way that works. I can make a copy of the font.classes list, modify that list and then replace font.classes with my modified list. Doesn't seem an elegant way of accomplishing the desired results, but it does work.0
