Just a note that an interim release of XmBDFEditor (pre 5.0) has been made to
fix a few bugs and update the binary distributions for more recent versions of
X on Linux and Solaris.

FYI - xmbdfed is an easy-to-use X11/Motif BDF bitmap font editor which can
import and export in numerous formats and makes editing bitmap fonts a lot
easier.

This is going out to the OpenType list because xmbdfed supports creation and
editing of SBIT strikes up to 4bpp, which can be included in OT fonts using
other tools.  4.5 is the last version with SBIT support.  Nobody seems to be
using it, so it's going.
