Fair point. Anyways, there is no option for that, and I won't add
one. The patch I mentioned would be a small, namely to add the
lines
if ( load_flags & FT_LOAD_RENDER )
{
load_flags &= 0xFFF0FFFFL; /* unset rendering modes */
load_flags |= FT_LOAD_TARGET_MONO;
}
near the beginning of `FT_Load_Glyph', and
render_mode = FT_RENDER_MODE_MONO;
near the beginning of `FT_Render_Glyph' (untested). Maybe there are
more spots to handle in the source code; I haven't checked this
thoroughly.
