I want to improve my Python-Fontlab scripting skills. Is there any resource, book, tutorials, etc for this. I have taken online Python classes, delved through Python books, but I'm looking for FL or type design specific stuff.

Any books are likely going to be outdated since FLVI has changed a lot. Here's another place to ask:

George, are you looking for FontLab VI? Or FontLab Studio 5?

The best way is to find some python code for FL on github, read it and try to understand what is going on.
