Fonttools

---------------------------

- Reorganized the command line interface for ttDump.py and
ttCompile.py, they now behave more like "normal" command line tool,
in that they accept multiple input files for batch processing.
- ttDump.py and ttCompile.py don't silently override files anymore, but
ask before doing so. Can be overridden by -f.
- Added -d option to both ttDump.py and ttCompile.py.
- Installation is now done with distutils. (Needs work for environments
without compilers.)
- Updated installation instructions.
- Added some workarounds so as to handle certain buggy fonts more
gracefully.
- Updated Unicode table to Unicode 3.0 (Thanks Antoine!)
- Included a Python script by Adam Twardoch that adds some useful stuff
to the Windows registry.
- Moved the project to SourceForge.

---------------------------

- Big reorganization: made ttLib a subpackage of the new fontTools
package, changed several module names. Called the entire suite
"FontTools"
- Added several submodules to fontTools, some new, some older.
- Added experimental CFF/GPOS/GSUB support to ttLib, read-only (but XML
dumping of GPOS/GSUB is for now disabled)
- Fixed hdmx endian bug
- Added -b option to ttCompile.py, it disables recalculation of
bounding boxes, as requested by Werner Lemberg.
- Renamed tt2xml.pt to ttDump.py and xml2tt.py to ttCompile.py
- Use ".ttx" as file extension instead of ".xml".
- TTX is now the name of the XML-based *format* for TT fonts, and not
just an application.

-----

Never released

- More tables supported: hdmx, vhea, vmtx

-------------

Never released

- fixed most portability issues
- retracted the "Euro_or_currency" change from 1.0a2: it was
nonsense!

---------------------------

- binary release for MacOS
- genenates full FOND resources: including width table, PS font name
info and kern table if applicable.
- added cmap format 4 support. Extra: dumps Unicode char names as XML
comments!
- added cmap format 6 support
- now accepts true type files starting with "true" (instead of just
0x00010000 and "OTTO")
- 'glyf' table support is now complete: I added support for composite
scale, xy-scale and two-by-two for the 'glyf' table. For now,
component offset scale behaviour defaults to Apple-style. This only
affects the (re)calculation of the glyph bounding box.
- changed "Euro" to "Euro_or_currency" in the Standard Apple Glyph
order list, since we cannot tell from the 'post' table which is
meant. I should probably doublecheck with a Unicode encoding if
available. (This does not affect the output!)

Fixed bugs: - 'hhea' table is now recalculated correctly - fixed wrong
assumption about sfnt resource names

---------------------------

- initial binary release for MacOS
