  * builds/win32/detekt.mk: Fix .PHONY target for Intel compiler.
  
  Renamed "ftnames.h" to "ftsnames.h", and FT_NAMES_H to
  FT_SFNT_NAMES_H.
  * docs/docmaker.py: Added generation of INDEX link in table of
  contents.
  * INSTALL, docs/BUILD: Updated documentation to indicate that the
  compilation process has changed slightly (no more `src' required in
  * builds/*/*-def.mk: Changed the objects directory from "obj" to
  "objs".
  * include/freetype/config/ftheader.h: Removed obsolete macros like
  FT_SOURCE_FILE, etc. and added cache-specific macro definitions that
  were previously defined in <freetype/ftcache.h>.  Added comments to
  be included in a new API Reference section.
  
  * src/*/*: Removed the use of FT_SOURCE_FILE, etc.  Now, each
  component needs to add its own directory to the include path at
  compile time.  Modified all "rules.mk" and "descrip.mms"
  accordingly.
  
  * src/cid/cidobjs.c, src/cid/cidload.c, src/pcf/pcfread.c,
  src/type1/t1load.c, src/type1/t1objs.c: Added a few casts to remove
  compiler warnings in pedantic modes.
  * include/config/ft2build.h, include/config/ftheader.h: The file
  top-level <ft2build.h>.
  
  * include/config/ftheader.h: Added new section describing the #include
  macros.
  
  
  the Type 2 glyph charstring (used by conversion programs).
  * docs/docmaker.py: Added cross-references generation as well as
  
  
  seac emulation provided by the Type 2 endchar operator.
  
  
  * src/cid/cidafm.c, src/cid/cidafm.h: removed un-needed files,
  Added support for clipped direct rendering in the smooth renderer.
  
  
  * src/cff/t2objs.c (T2_Init_Face): For pure CFF fonts, set

• INSTALL

• In order to build the library, read the `BUILD' document in the `docs'
  directory.  This is only a quick starter.
  
  
  I. From the command line
  ------------------------
  
    You need  to have  GNU Make (version  3.78.1 or newer)  installed on
    your system to compile the library from the command line.  This will
    _NOT_ work with other make tools (including BSD make)!
  
    [Well, this is not  really correct.  Recently, a perl implementation
    of make called `makepp' has appeared which can also build FreeType 2
    successfully on Unix platforms.  See http://LNC.usc.edu/~holt/makepp
    for more details.]
    
    - Go to the `freetype2' directory.
  
    - Unix (any C compiler should work):
  
        - make setup (don't worry, this will invoke a configure script)
        - make
        - make install
  
      Alternatively,  you can  pass parameters  to the  configure script
      within the CFG variable, as in:
  
        - make setup CFG="--prefix=/usr"
        - make
        - make install
  
    - Windows:
  
      We provide a  version of GNU Make for Win32  on the FreeType site.
      See http://www.freetype.org/download.html for details.
  
      - gcc (Mingw, _not_ CygWin):
      
          - make setup
          - make
  
  
      - Visual C++:
      
          - make setup visualc
          - make
  
  
      - other compilers:
      
            - make setup xxxx
            - make
            
        where "xxxx" is a special target corresponding to your compiler.
        To see a list of supported compilers in this release, type:
        
            make setup list
        
  
  II. In your own environment (IDE)
  ---------------------------------
  
    You need to add  the directories "freetype2/include" to your include
    path when compiling the library.
    
    FreeType  2 is  made  of several  components;  each one  of them  is
    located   in  a  subdirectory   of  "freetype2/src".   For  example,
    `freetype2/src/truetype/' contains the TrueType font driver.
    
    DO NOT COMPILE ALL C FILES!  Rather, compile the following ones:
    
      -- base components (required)
       
        src/base/ftsystem.c
        src/base/ftinit.c
        src/base/ftdebug.c
        src/base/ftbase.c
        src/base/ftglyph.c
        src/base/ftbbox.c
        src/base/ftmm.c
       
        src/base/ftmac.c        -- only on the Macintosh
  
      -- other components are optional
  
        src/autohint/autohint.c -- auto hinting module
        src/cache/ftcache.c     -- cache sub-system (in beta)
        src/sfnt/sfnt.c         -- SFNT files support (TrueType & OpenType)
        src/cff/cff.c           -- CFF/OpenType font driver
        src/psnames/psnames.c   -- Postscript glyph names support
        src/psaux/psaux.c       -- Postscript Type 1 parsing
        src/truetype/truetype.c -- TrueType font driver
        src/type1/type1.c       -- Type 1 font driver
        src/cid/type1cid.c      -- Type 1 CID-keyed font driver
        src/winfonts/winfonts.c -- Windows FONT / FNT font driver
  
      Note:
       
         `truetype.c' needs `sfnt.c' and `psnames.c'
         `type1.c'    needs `psaux.c' and `psnames.c'
         `type1cid.c' needs `psaux.c' and `psnames.c'
         `cff.c'      needs `sfnt.c', `psaux.c', and `psnames.c'
  
         etc.
