BTW, why are you allocating so much memory blocks?  `ftexample.c'
asks for a single character, I thus expect that the GF driver loads
only a single glyph...

 

Oh, this may be because of 128 glyph objects + 1 GF_Glyph object. Actually, the GF

driver always allocates 256 blocks for the glyph bitmaps to be loaded and then according

to the font file it initializes the required blocks. So, when `ftexample.c' asks for a character

it first loads all the initialised glyphs and then extracts the correct one.

Thank you
