Hi I briefly remember Alan and other members of VPRI doing a presentation of the text layout engine while they were here for a short visit to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I'm currently dealing with some layout work in Morphic and would like to take a deeper look at the algorithm that they have used.
The VPRI.org website has been down since Monday and the only reference I could find is a cached version of the STEPS Toward The Reinvention of Programming, 2009 Progress Report Submitted to the National Science Foundation (NSF) October 2009 through Google <https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&q=cache:oiduCS-BeDIJ:www.vpri.org/pdf/tr2009016_steps09.pdf+viewpoints+research+successor+predecessor&hl=en&gl=us&pid=bl&srcid=ADGEEShD1B0xdX2kw4-oEhaVrKJei9ALA4pK22zXOLs_iMqc0I3iO4YNVilUbGgKdqvcHTyrZ65waM6WzXTzKdMpnSsoLpJhNBL3cyEx2JDfF3RORgSmkiEkmLkn53AtJxtW8R3nYZB_&sig=AHIEtbSIdvnM808Mw4F9a6ildEZmkHHFIg&pli=1> Could anyone provide more pointers about the text layout engine? In particular, is there an image with the implementation that I might be able to take a deeper look at? Has there been any future work on it that I can read more about? Thanks! -- Nick _______________________________________________ fonc mailing list [email protected] http://vpri.org/mailman/listinfo/fonc
