Legacy stuff is still available but not really supposed to be used anymore, and in particular (and of special interest to toolkit authors) nowadays to display text you should go through XFT and fontconfig and not use legacy Core X11 font methods. IMHO, if you intend to update your toolkit for another 15 years of use, your should first evaluate switching to a higher-level library such as cairo instead of continuing to use XLib directly. cairo (via pangocairo) will use the modern font stack, and is now a foundation library for gtk, firefox, (soon) OpenOffice.org, and many others. -- Nicolas Mailhot _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
