Compare Fonts script?

Hi Wei, I was searching in the Glyphs plugin manager scripts and came across your Compare Fonts script but looks like it's not in your repo anymore.

Any chance it is still available?

Show Kerning Pairs.py not working with groups

I've noticed an issue with Show Kerning Pairs.py. Kerning pairs which have a group name, other than its glyph name, are shown blank.

From what I can tell the if statement of the nameMaker() function returns the names of the kerning groups, and those names are then added into the kernPair string kernPair = "/%s/%s " % (thisGlyphName, nameMaker(R)) Does there have to be an additional loop of listing what at the members of each kerning group?

I've tried modifying the code by adding a loop that checks which glyphs are members of the returned kerning groups and inserting those into the string. I've got it working somewhat but have a feeling that there are things it may be missing. In any case, I've included the code below.

The issue is also posted in the Glyphs forum: https://forum.glyphsapp.com/t/show-kerning-pairs/10729/5
