Win32 Text Rendering

2007-02-08 Thread Christopher Armstrong
Hi all I'm currently running GNUstep SVN on Windows. I'm experiencing very unusual text rendering, where it appears strings are being rendered with giant spaces in them (about 5-10 characters wide). It seems these spaces are inserted at about the 16th character in each string. They also make the

If we had gnustep-make depend on pkg-config, then you wouldn't be able to use GNUstep unless you installed pkg-config first. That's not entirely correct. GNUstep can be taught how to read pkgconfig-format-file, such as GNUstep.pc, thus eliminating the need for GNUstep.conf entirely,
