I have my personal scripts on a local repo somewhere on my computer and an alias to it in the Scripts folder. However, I have renamed the alias so I can organize the menu how I want.
Glyphs 3 shows the alias name:
But Glyphs 4 shows the name of the original folder instead:
This is the Scripts folder of Glyphs 4:
Could we have Glyphs 4 also use the alias name like G3 does?
Glyphs 4 (4202)
You can add a file .localizedMenu to the folder (in the repo):
{
"en": "_Fabio Haag Type development"
}
This is similar to the ways Apple localizes folder names in Finder.

it only works with aliases or symlinks in 4202. And fixing this broke your use case.
