You probably ought to be looking at
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/pango/index.html Even when
developing for an older version, it's often helpful to look at newer
versions of the docs because people sometimes fill in and improve the
documentation of older functions.
Actually some of the backend independent functionality I was thinking of
is in gdk -- see
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gdk/gdk-Pango-Interaction.html
and
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gdk/gdk-Drawing-Primitives.html#gdk-draw-glyphs
I don't know exactly how this would all fit together, but I think those
are the places to start if you want to replace pango's layout of glyphs
with scintilla's. This would bypass pango's support for right-to-left
and bi-directional text, however, but I'm not sure if scintilla
currently supports these.
