[Devel] new "otlayout" module in the CVS Repository

[David Turner]

Hello,

 I've just imported a new module, called "otlayout" within the FreeType CVS
 server. It contains the first (alpha) implementation of a stand-alone 
OpenType
 Layout validation / processing library as described in a previous post 
a few weeks
 ago.

 Most of the code compilers, but has been untested. The API is in the file
 "otlayout/otlayout.h" which contains the usual documentation comments.

 The implementation is heavily based on the code of the latest FreeType 1.x
 sources; I have used quite a number of macro tricks to minimize the number
 of  changes to perform to the "ftx*" files, using some tricky glue 
available in
 "ftxutil*". It doesn't include any of the patches described by Owen 
recently.

 I'd prefer to finalize the API and the unit tests before integrating 
them, though
 nothing sacred. Comments are welcomed, as usual..

Regards,
