Is it pointless to build fontconfig & friends on non-XFree86 systems (e.g. Solaris, HP-UX, IRIX, etc.)? From http://nexp.cs.pdx.edu/fontconfig/ I read: Xft 2.0 hides most of the underlying system details so that developers can confidently use it''s API to access client-side fonts in any X environment. and: For X servers without the Render extension, Xft 1.0 used core X fonts instead of client-side fonts. So, I believe the answer is yes but want confirmation. -- albert chin (china@thewrittenword.com)
