New font handling mechanism with font backend method
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The new files are:
|
|
|
|
|
font.h -- header providing font-backend related structures
|
|
|
|
|
(most important ones are "struct font" and "struct
|
|
|
|
|
font_driver"), macros, and etc.
|
|
|
|
|
font.c -- main font handling code.
|
|
|
|
|
xfont.c -- font-driver on X for X core fonts.
|
|
|
|
|
ftfont.c -- generic font-driver for FreeType fonts providing
|
|
|
|
|
device-independent methods of struct font_driver.
|
|
|
|
|
xftfont.c -- font-driver on X using Xft for FreeType fonts
|
|
|
|
|
utilizing methods provided by ftfont.c.
|
|
|
|
|
ftxfont.c -- font-driver on X directly using FreeType fonts
|
|
|
|
|
utilizing methods provided by ftfont.c.
|
|
|
|
|
w32font.c -- font driver on w32 using Windows native fonts,
|
|
|
|
|
corresponding to xfont.c
|
2008-04-04 11:10:26 +00:00
|
|
|
|
w32uniscribe.c -- font driver on w32, using the uniscribe API
|
|
|
|
|
to provide complex script support for opentype fonts on
|
|
|
|
|
Windows 2000 and later, or earlier versions of Windows
|
|
|
|
|
with uniscribe installed as an add-on.

|
|
|
|
So we already have codes for X and w32. For Mac it seems that we need
|
|
|
|
|
these files:
|
2008-02-21 04:00:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
atmfont.c -- font-driver on mac using ATM fonts, corresponding
|
|
|
|
|
to xfont.c
|
|
|
|
|
As BDF fonts are currently used on w32, we may also implement these:
|
|
|
|
|
bdffont.c -- generic font-driver for BDF fonts, corresponding to
|
|
|
|
|
ftfont.c
|
|
|
|
|
bdfw32font.c -- font-driver on w32 using BDF fonts,
|
|
|
|
|
corresponding to ftxfont.c
|
|
|
|
|
But, as FreeType already supports BDF fonts, if FreeType and
|
|
|
|
|
Fontconfig are also available on w32, what we need may be:
|
|
|
|
|
ftw32font.c -- font-driver on w32 directly using FreeType fonts
|
|
|
|
|
utilizing methods provided by ftfont.c.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It may be interesting if Emacs supports a frame buffer directly and
|
|
|
|
|
has these font driver.
|
|
|
|
|
ftfbfont.c -- font-driver on FB for FreeType fonts.
|
|
|
|
|
bdffbfont.c -- font-driver on FB for BDF fonts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: The fontset related codes are not yet matured to work well with
|
|
|
|
|
the font backend method. So, for instance, even if you start Emacs
|
|
|
|
|
as something like this:
|
|
|
|
|
% emacs -fn tahoma
|
|
|
|
|
Non-ASCII Latin characters will not be displayed by the font "tahoma".
|
|
|
|
|
In such a case, please try this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(set-fontset-font "fontset-default" 'latin '("tahoma" . "unicode-bmp"))
|
|
|
