Re: gEDA-user: PCB: simple FreeType fonts implementation



For those who may be interested in this patchset:
I've just rebased it against current GIT state,
added QCAD fonts support and some usability handles.

QCAD fonts are imported with LoadQCADFont action,
FreeType2, as before, with LoadFreetype; fonts
of both types may be referenced or embedded.

To handle Unicode combining characters, I added
a means to address glyphs by their numbers rather
than UTF-8 code, via escape sequencies.

New actions:

ListFonts() to list the loaded fonts in Log window

ReportFont(font_index) to print font features
 in Log window

FontProperties(font_index) to modify font
 settings like scale and embedness

ShowFont(font_index) makes a table like
 in EditFont mode, with letters written via
 escape sequences to pick the glyphs.

To get the updated patchset version,

git clone git://repo.or.cz/geda-pcb/dti.git
cd dti
git checkout -b freetype origin/freetype

I'd be happy to hear any comments on this patchset.
