I want to install Ghostscript fonts along with ImageMagick, but I do
not want hard-coded pathnames in "type-ghostscript.xml". This will
allow our software installation to be placed in any arbitrary location
without requiring reconfiguration.
To accomplish this, I suggest allowing "LoadTypeList()" in "type.c" to
find glyph and metric files relative to the "type.xml" location. I
propose this patch:
