M. Takeyama です。 m17nのＭＬに対するレスです。 マイクさんの方で、PfaEditのパッケージを作成して公開されて います。PfaEditをSUSE 9.0で使おうと思い改めてPfaEditのwebページ を調べたところ 10-Mar-2004の時点でソースコードが更新されている ようでした。 ＃マイクさんのパッケージも更新していただけと助かります。 -----(24-Feb-2004以降の変更点)---------------------------------------- # 10-Mar-2004 * The autohint command would sometimes reverse direction of a contour (bug introduced 24-Feb) * PfaEdit would sometimes generate internal errors when editing quadratic splines * When reading a font with an apple 'mort' table, pfaedit would often parse marked substitions incorrectly. # 6-Mar-2004 * When "cleaning up OS/2" on 29-Feb, I broke WinAscent/WinDescent * PfaEdit failed to convert the language when loading a mac unicode string from the 'name' table * Fix an undefined variable in multiple font generation. # 1-Mar-2004 * The Check directions option of Find Problems caused multilayer mode to crash. * Expand stroke would produce counter-clockwise paths when given an open contour and asked to fill it with a circular (or elliptical) pen * Try to do a better job of guessing the correct direction of a path in an eps file (or a type3 or svg font) * PfaEdit would crash when editing in the grid layer * When the control key is down, make the scroll wheel do a magnify/minify. * Various cosmetic changes to find problems 1. Specify that "nearness" is measured in em-units 2. change "refs deeper than" to "refs nested deeper than" 3. make check dir be on by default * Put in more comments about fontforge. We now have a domain under fontforge, future releases will be found there. # 29-Feb-2004 * PfaEdit could crash if given a bad 'cmap' subtable * Clean up generation of OS/2 a bit * Pass motion events to windows even when a dlg is active (so that the mouse location will be shown in an outline window when the Point info dlg is active). * Put in a comment about changing to FontForge in the copyright notice the program prints at start up. * The "preflight" script on the mac had problems if the program had never been installed before # 27-Feb-2004 * Redid the way menus respond to arrow keys * a multilayer enabled PfaEdit would crash when editing a normal font. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
