Ah, I forgot to tell you how to build. For a build with subpixel
hinting, simply I say
make devel
make
from a clean (unmodified) repository. For a build without subpixel
hinting, modify `devel/ftoption.h' (*not*
`include/freetype/config/ftoption.h!) and comment out
TT_CONFIG_OPTION_SUBPIXEL_HINTING. Then do again `make devel; make'.
This creates static builds, making sure that you don't access the
wrong DLL accidentally. FontConfig is not involved at all.
Well, I've been building the dynamic library and then using LD_PRELOAD
to reference it. I verified with ldd that it is in fact loading the
newly-compiled library. Still, I am unable to reproduce it. From a
stock 2.4.11, if I build it without modifying anything, I get the nice
B/W rendering. If I then go into include/freetype/config/ftoption.h and
enable subpixel hinting and rendering, I still get the nice B/W
rendering. How would I go about running ftview once I have the static
.a library?
