Thanks Klaus,

I chatted with both Tuviah and Kevin recently about the EXT.dll and documentation/support source code for it.

Turns out neither knows much about it. Actually, EXT.dll currently ships with Rev, but according to Kevin is not used. Somewhere along the way, the source code has been lost, which isn't too bad as much of the functiionality is already embedded within the engine. Also, the ext_loadfont command hangs the current vers of Rev.

Chris Bohnert of Altuit is working on an external to enable dynamic realtime loading of fonts for Windows (without having to 'install' into the fonts folder). Is this something of interest to Mac users as well?

best,

Chipp

Hi Chipp,

Anyone out there doing it? I've tried a simple font install stack, but it just hangs when I issue the ext_loadFont handler (Rev 2.6.1), but after quitting it appears the font is 'set'. I don't have any docs, if there are any out there, or a simple couple line script, I'd much appreciate it:-)

I think this is what's working (it's a handler, not a function), but it hangs as soon as it's called. Of course all the externals are set correctly, and filepaths, but I'm not sure of the syntax, or if this thing still even works.
