Hi, Thanks; Is there a "porting guide" for the demos? I will be porting ftview and ftgrid to a small graphics library that isn't supported. It has a simple 2D raster type API that I will use to render the glyphs (including bitmaps).
I can probably dig through the code and figure out, but if you have any pointers of where to look first, that would be great. Which files to compile if I'm using ftview, etc. Note that I have downloaded ft2demos-2.3.2.tar.gz since that is the version of Freetype I am currently using.
