2016-01-13source/css/theme.css: Fix printing stylesheetZhiming Wang1-1/+5
Adjust to the right font size. Most of the heavylifting is avoided by the last commit which made all printing font sizes relative (to the base body font size). Also add "-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact" to the pre tag to hint WebKit based browsers to keep my code block background color. Nothing can be done in Firefox; users need to manually check the "Print Background Colors" advanced printing option. IE/Edge? Who knows, who cares.
2016-01-13source/css/theme.css: Use relative sizes throughoutZhiming Wang1-17/+4
Sizes relative to the base body size are easier to update -- only need to update the base size.
2016-01-13Remove old web fonts from treeZhiming Wang35-15359/+0
It's been a few days since the site refresh, and I haven't spotted any problems. It's time to move on. Closes #9.

2016-01-08Add stuff to source/ and exclude themZhiming Wang16-0/+721
The lonely templates/template.html finally finds it home in the cozy source/, where it rightfully belongs, without the need to worry about being exposed to the world in build/ ;) The full fontello distribution I downloaded (and unpacked) from fontello.com is now in source/fonts/fontello.

2016-01-08Site design refresh part III: nav, i.e. logoZhiming Wang2-24/+14
Surprisingly, a tweaked Arial isn't so bad. Saying goodbye to Open Sans, which was tweaked to minic Helvetica Neue in the first place.

Regular text 150% => 160%, code 22px => 23px.

2016-01-08Site design refresh part II: icon fontZhiming Wang6-73/+40
Use slimmed icon font packaged by http://fontello.com/. I only need two glyphs: RSS and CC. I ended up picking the glyphs from the Entypo v2.0 family (https://github.com/danielbruce/entypo), licensed under SIL. I actually like the Font Awesome glyphs slightly better, but fontello currently only supports FA v4.3.0, which doesn't include the circular CC glyph I need. Old web fonts are kept for now. They will be removed after a while. See \#9. Open Sans is still in place and will be addressed later when the logo is attacked. The entire fontello package I downloaded, including the license, will be added to this repo as source/fonts/fontello/ later when I have implemented an exclude list in pyblog to prevent the directory from being copied to the deployment tree.

discovered when doing site refresh.
2016-01-08Site design refresh part IZhiming Wang2-43/+70
Highlights: * Change font to Times/Times New Roman + Courier; * Text slightly darkened across the board to account for the thinner Times; * Eliminate line numbers; * Use custom highlight.css (based on highlight-css supplied by Pandoc, but hightlight more classes when Pandoc falls short, e.g., span.im for Python from and import). Closes #5 because we don't have line numbers anymore.
2016-01-08Markdown source files: Revert YAML closing line from ... to ---Zhiming Wang98-98/+98
GFM doesn't support closing with ..., and the rendered results are less than satisfactory.
2016-01-08Markdown source files: Use ... to end YAML metadata blockZhiming Wang98-98/+199
Also add a newline after the metadata block. ... is easier on markdown-mode; if --- is used, the line immediately above it will be treated as a setext header and highlighted, which isn't so easy on the eyes.

2015-12-26theme.css and template.html: Solve overflow problem in code and a tagsZhiming Wang1-0/+5
Over-long inline <code> tag or long literal link in <a> tag used to overflow the container. This is especially bad on phones where width is very limited. This commit hopefully solves the overflow problem. Still no smarter word breaking, but it's probably just an unfortunate limitation of HTML.

2015-11-26theme.css: change color of inline code to #777Zhiming Wang1-0/+2
Droid Sans Mono doesn't stand out too well in a wall of PT Serif. Changing to a greyish color doesn't disrupt the black-and-white feel of the website, while giving inline code a bit more distinction.
