Not at this time :) Perhaps in the future... But in reality, memory requirements for whole Unicode map is quite big. So loading only parts that really matter, saves quite a lot. If you look at the code there is TODO with similar commend "caching needed" :) If we think about my problem with fonts (or reading them), I didn't even try to make workaround like caching everything. Instead I wanted to find root cause for the reading problem. So this has slowed down a bit development. _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
