- vFont version 2.0
- A font machinery for the Amiga
- (c) 1991 by Michael Jansson
- All rights reserved
-
-
- This archive consists mainly of some amiga run-time libraries that will
- enable you, as an programmer, to render outline font on your Amiga. It will
- also enable you, as an graphical designer, to create good looking fonts for
- your Amiga with a nice font editor.
-
- The status of the project
- -------------------------
- This is the very first public release of this project, which implies:
- * it is not fully tested and finished, so you might encounter some
- "Software Failures", even though most parts of the programs and the
- libraries in this archive has been stable for quite some time (the
- beta testers are acknowledged at the end of this file).
-
- * that some basic functionality is still missing, but should be enough for most
- programmers.
-
- * that the documentation is probably not sufficient and proof read.
-
- A basic requirement for me to fix problems with this project, that may
- arise, is that I know that they exists. Let me know if you find something
- totally wrong, undesirable, missing etc. and I will fix it.
-
- Legal stuff
