I would be interested in knowing how complete or incomplete this is. I agree 
that a complete rewrite would be a better idea, I'm just surprised that 
somebody is actually attempting it.

Re: [SharpOS Developers] Freetype
I don't have time to hash out a long email now but I have been working on 
porting freetype to c#.I am going to run it off system.drawing so that it will 
drop in when that is complete.Quick status: started decoding the instructions, 
reminds me of msil decoding :), albiet horrific documentation.I don't think 
anyone would be too hot on just compiling freetype as is, it wasn't architected 
with the .net paradigms/practices/styles in mind. It will be like using mogre 
(anyone used it? it hurts to write code like that).Not to mention [I assume] 
most of the coders around here don't use c++ that much :). I will see about 
dropping my code in a repo when it gets a bit more feature complete.Email me 
direct if you want a zip of what I have so far.

[SharpOS Developers] FreetypeHi guys,I'm new here so I don't know the status of 
the project too well. Have any of you tried to compile Freetype to MSIL? I've 
spent a couple of hours and had some amount of success. I don't know what to do 
about the calls to setjmpor longjmpso I've just dummied those out. After that I 
get about 15 unresolved externals that I'm struggling with. Its been a while 
since I looked at c++, I've been a c# man for a number of years now. Would 
anybody be interested in looking at what I have so far?CheersColinIf you are
