otfinfo -i is the same.

As mentioned in KnotUntied/scoop-fonts#1, xkcd-Regular.otf seems to be the finished version of xkcd.otf.

Both of them are called “xkcd” (Family in otfinfo -i), so they cannot coexist — installing one will overwrite the other.

If you install xkcd.otf and with rc_context({ 'font.family': 'xkcd' }) in matplotlib, text will become big and overlapping strokes. The solution is to install xkcd-Regular.otf instead. (Tested on Windows)
