GRAPHITE ENGINE
The Graphite smart font engine is the bit that takes a unicode string,font
formatting information (features, size, etc.) and a font and returns a set
of positioned glyphs. Graphite also does more than this, in that it can
handle cursor tracking and interaction with the application for string
selection, etc.
In order to interact with the application or system Graphite is embedded in
an application may want to write a custom font and render backend or use one
of the provided backends in the wrappers project.
The *nix build system uses autoconf and automake including all the
conventions of those tools. This includes extended support for debug,
maintanence mode, etc. See the GNU autotools info pages for the appropriate
tools for help. See INSTALL for more information on using the build system.
If you have checked this source out of the Graphite Subversion repository or
a similar version control system you will need to generate the autotools
scripts and files (configure, Makefile.in etc) to do this run:
autoreconf --install
Please see INSTALL for information on building
NOTE:
If you modify any configure.in or Makefile.am file you will need rerun
autoreconf like so:
autoreconf
For those changes to affect the configure script and makefiles.
