This commit changes many aspect of our cmake build system
- shared libraries are compiled by default:
* this modifies RPATH of unix executables;
* this will prevent a lot of linking issues, esp. from pascal world;
* the old behaviour (static libs) is still available with -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=off;
* of course in this case you have to provide the full list of dependencies with FPFLAGS and CMAKE_C_FLAGS;
- pascal is now fully integrated with cmake, meaning you can just do add_sources and use CMAKE_Pascal_FLAGS:
* some of the language features are only partially implemented, for example .inc files will not get rebuilt if you modify them;
* target_link_libraries for pascal targets is just dummy as linking is determined within pascal files;
* universal builds for osx are not available any more;
- bundled libraries and system libraries are addressed using the target name:
* this avoids depedency tracking;
* this allows to name output as we wish.
This file contains a list of various font formats. It gives the
reference document and whether it is supported in FreeType 2.
file type:
The only special case is `MAC'; on older Mac OS versions, a `file'
is stored as a data and a resource fork, this is, within two
separate data chunks. In all other cases, the font data is stored
in a single file.
wrapper format:
The format used to represent the font data. In the table below it
is used only if the font format differs. Possible values are `SFNT'
(binary), `PS' (a text header, followed by binary or text data),
`LZW' (compressed with either `gzip' or `compress'), and
`BZ2' (compressed with `bzip2`).
font format:
How the font is to be accessed, possibly after converting the file
type and wrapper format into a generic form. Bitmap formats are
`BDF', `PCF', and one form of `WINFNT'; all others are vector
formats.
font type:
Sub-formats of the font format. `SBIT' and `MACSBIT' are bitmap
formats, `MM' and `VAR' support optical axes.
glyph access:
If not specified, the glyph access is `standard' to the font format.
Values are `CID' for CID-keyed fonts, `SYNTHETIC' for fonts which
are modified versions of other fonts by means of a transformation
matrix, `COLLECTION' for collecting multiple fonts (sharing most of
the data) into a single file, and `TYPE_0' for PS fonts which are to
be accessed in a tree-like structure.
FreeType driver:
The module in the FreeType library which handles the specific font
format. A missing entry means that FreeType doesn't support the
font format (yet).
Please send additions and/or corrections to wl@gnu.org or to the
FreeType developer's list at freetype-devel@nongnu.org (for subscribers
only). If you can provide a font example for a format which isn't
supported yet please send a mail too.

[1] Support should be rather simple since this is identical to `CFF' but
in a PS wrapper.
[2] Official PFR specification:
http://www.bitstream.com/categories/developer/truedoc/pfrspec.html
http://www.bitstream.com/categories/developer/truedoc/pfrspec1.2.pdf
The syntax of the auxiliary data is not defined there, but is
partially defined in MHP 1.0.3 (also called ETSI TS 101812 V1.3.1)
section 7.4.

[3] Support is rudimentary currently; some tables are not loaded yet.
[4] See
THE X WINDOW SYSTEM SERVER: X VERSION 11, RELEASE 5
Elias Israel, Erik Fortune, Digital Press, 1992
ISBN 1-55558-096-3
for a specification given in Appendix D on pgs. 436-450. However,
this information might be out of date; unfortunately, there is no
PCF specification available online, and this book is out of print.
George Williams deduced the font format from the X11 sources and
documented it for his FontForge font editor:
