Hi, I try to use freetype with xlib,
You know there's a Xft library specifically designed to make using freetype in Xlib applications simpler right? http://www.x.org/archive/current/doc/man/man3/Xft.3.xhtml Of course, few people use it directly, since to really handle text you need higher level layout engines such as Pango, and the support that toolkits provide to handle input & display of characters from different languages with complex requirements, not to mention support for different types of input device (mobile devices, accessibility helpers for people who are physically unable to use mice/keyboards, etc.) -- -Alan Coopersmith- [email protected] Oracle Solaris Engineering - http://blogs.oracle.com/alanc _______________________________________________ [email protected]: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: [email protected]
