even when FORKED_FONTS is not set.
* No longer undef'ing SDL_thread stuff when FORKED_FONTS is
used if we're ALSO not using SDL_Pango, since that now
uses a thread to let fontconfig generate its cache, and
still let Tux Paint be responsive to the OS and user.
(SF.net bug #2944951)
* Spawning a thread and rendering a dummy string with SDL_Pango,
to allow fontconfig to generate its cache.
(SF.net bug #2944951)
* Setting up 'busy' mouse cursor (watch-shaped) earlier
(so it can happen while fontconfig cache thread runs).
* Not spawning forked font scanner (FORKED_FONTS) as early, so
fontconfig can generate its cache first.
(I wasn't sure if calling an SDL_thread after a fork()
occured was safe or not; admittedly, I discovered that
SDL_thread spawning wasn't working due to the re-#defines
of those functions when FORKED_FONTS was set; see above.)
All of this only tested on Ubuntu 9.04. Forced disabling of FORKED_FONTS
by editing fonts.h, and Tux Paint still worked (it just took longer at
the splash screen while the fonts were loaded). Needs testing on various
Windows, Mac OS X and BeOS.
* Solve the 'FIXME: "finddir" ...' (The trick is to use "=" instead of ":=". That way, $(beos_PREFIX) will only be evaluated when it is actually used.)
* include "shlwapi.h" instead of "Shlwapi.h" (Otherwise, compiling for Windows will fail on a case sensitive file system. (e.g. a Unix file system when cross compiling))
* use FILENAME_MAX instead of NAME_MAX (FILENAME_MAX is more portable than NAME_MAX. Also, recent MinGW versions don't support NAME_MAX anymore.)
* Exposing font_thread_aborted via extern [tweak to Volker's patch which removed a logic test, which is probably not what we want]
* include parse.h (and thus compiler.h) after <stdio.h> (This ensures that the perror() macro of compiler.h won't confuse the perror() function declaration of <stdio.h>.)
* fix another compiling error about undefined variables (The tuxpaint.c uses printcommand/altprintcommand/papersize even when they aren't defined, i.e. when libpaper is not used. This patch solves the issue by using "#ifdef PAPER_H")
* call show_available_papersizes() only when libpaper is used
* permit cross compiling by using Make variables instead of hard-coded tools
Documented scottmc's Haiku improvements.
a library for layout and rendering of text, with an emphasis on
internationalization. (The hope is to improve support for languages
that SDL_ttf doesn't support well; e.g., Arabic and Telegu.)
TTF_Font structs and some functions were replaced by a new
TuxPaint_Font struct and function, which wraps around either TTF_Font
or SDLPango_Context, depending on whether SDL_Pango is being used.
Note: STILL NEEDS WORK!
Reordered font-loading to happen after locale switch occurs, to
pick up font-organizing string translations (e.g., "Aa", "qx", etc.).
Attempting to help address issue of Latin-only fonts being available
in non-Latin locales -- seemed to help with Norwegian.
Czech translation update.
