I'm trying to add a font in a mod, with this path specified in /locale/en/font.cfg:

[font]
glyph=__Glyph__/fonts/glyph.ttf

-- I also tried:
[font]
glyph=fonts/glyph.ttf

However, Factorio treats it as a subfolder of the main install folder, rather than my mod folder, giving this error message as a result:

Apple Mac wrote: Error when opening /Users/*****/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Factorio/factorio.app/Contents/data/core/__Glyph__/fonts/glyph.ttf for reading: No such file or directory

This error goes unnoticed in the 'core' mod that's bundled with factorio, but makes it impossible for mods to add their own fonts.

Hopefully this is relatively easy to fix.

Looks like this never worked in the first place. Fixed in 0.14.3.
