I still use Fontlab but have lately made the switch to Glyphs https://glyphsapp.com
Glyphs' pretty good. Simple, straightforward and more powerful than you'd think. It also creates opentype features for you. Not much pain on regards to hinting and creating OTF files quick. The overall flow is a little simpler than other software out there.

- That looks pretty good too. Cheers.monoboy

There's also TypeTool which I used to have a copy of and found it wholly functional for my [not massively extensive] needs (using output from Illy as you intend) - http://old.fontlab.com/font-edit…
Also, you might want to start off with a quick look at...
- Good shout. TypeTool looks handy and affordable for a one off. I'll give birdfont a go first. Cheers.monoboy

Isn't it about time for another QBN collaborative font...?
