I did take a look at OpalText about a month ago. Several significant bits are still stubbed out, and the rest references NSFont. Still has some ways to go. If nobody picks it up in about two months, I could see if I could try to do something with it using FreeType 2. I have enough Core Text war stories under my belt that I think I could do it some justice. : ) Some parts of that API make me long for the days of ATSUI. _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnustep mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnustep
