This sounds very cool. Is is just a program, or is there a library sitting behind it? From your .cabal file, it seems to be just a binary program.
Is this correct? http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/SVGFonts/0.1/SVGFonts.cabal On Mon, Apr 6, 2009 at 1:22 PM, Tillmann Vogt <[email protected]>wrote: > I hereby publish my first library in Haskell. > > SVGFonts 0.1 > > It parses the pretty unknown SVG Font format to produce outlines of > characters.
