The project of the moment involves Glade, Gtk, and Pango, but with a heavy dose of Fontconfig because Pango makes a whole mass of assumptions that are unacceptable for the purpose of this project. The C++ version shows how weird C++ gets. The Python version shows how easy Python is for the same task assuming ctypes (CFFI is not yet up to the task). I am starting a D version just to see if it can do the needful – my expectation is that it will trounce the C++ version, the question is how the Python and D versions compare. Basically it is a font browsing system, hence the title GFontBrowser. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
