Why would somebody use Dolphin or Nautilus (or Windows Explorer if you are not a *nixer) instead of a terminal and Bash?! I always found having to use hb-view from the terminal (and piping its output to Imagemagick's display) quite awkward and not convenient for testing. HB is about *shaping* and I want to immediately and quickly and *visually* see the final shape of text that I input. With this app (and while technically some might call it a "script") it's easy to do that. That much was obvious, I thought... -- Shriramana Sharma ஶ்ரீரமணஶர்மா श्रीरमणशर्मा _______________________________________________ HarfBuzz mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/harfbuzz
