Whew! I've finally integrated all received patches and other modifications
of my own for the Opera port, as well as starting enhancements for
the Kaffe port. This release is available at:
ftp://microwindows.org/pub/microwindows/microwindows-0.88pre5.tar.gz
This release should allow the Opera folks to produce a stable
port for a first public release. The new scalable font api is stable now, I
think.
Items added/changed since pre4 include:
o Added UTF-8 encoding/decoding for text display (thanks Morten)
o Added protocol fix for Nano-X client/server instability (thanks
Morten/Vidar)
o Added SHARED_LIBS config option to build shared libraries for Nano-X
o Added shared memory support for Nano-X client/server to eliminate need
for local UNIX socket. Shared memory support is turned on with a new
HAVE_SHAREDMEM_SUPPORT config option, and a call after
GrOpen to GrReqShmCmds. (thanks Morten)
o Added Nano-X calls for font size, rotation, and kerning/antialiasing
into Nano-X API, it's now set on a per-font basis rather than globally. There
are small adjustments in the GrFontXXX api. Also, rotations are set in tenths
of degrees.
o Implemented first part of various win32 api that Kaffe port needs.
o Various bug fixes
Have fun!
