Re: [osg-users] Modern OSG vs. OSG 2.8.5; also a question about word splitting in osgText
Thanks Robert. I'll spend some time getting the newest OSG working here, and then try applying my patch, and submit it for your perusal.

[osg-users] Modern OSG vs. OSG 2.8.5; also a question about word splitting in osgText
Hello all, I have been an active contributor to OSG in the past but have not kept up with recent developments. I have an application that uses OSG 2.8.5 mostly unmodified except for one patch that changes the way osgText breaks up words. I am wondering how easy it is generally to port programs forward from OSG 2.8.5 to the current release (appears to be 3.0.1, at least that is what is available by default in Fedora 17). I am of course willing to submit the changes I made to the word splitting in OSG, but how accepted will that be to the community? With the default word splitting, I was seeing things like: Large numbers split in the middle: 1,000\n,000,000 (The \n is where the line split occurred) Punctuation shown at the beginning of the next line instead of at the end of a line: This is the end\n. This is another sentence. Date/time split in strange places: 15:27\n:12 My new rules make the only splitting points at spaces and at hyphens (leaving the hyphen at the end of the line). If others depend on the current line-splitting method, I can create a patch that would allow the user to choose which method to use.
