[in our last episode, our hero discovered a weirdly installed version of
freetype2 in /usr/X11R6. He sent a summons for help to netbsd.org, but no

All,
I've got pre4 working! It's a real step up from 0.88. Now, a few simple
questions, if I may.

I'd say. Do I have to set my X server to "know" I'm running 100 dpi? Old
GTK apps looked fine, but Dia and Bluefish are
I hear tell 0.94 will be partly about HIG compliance. I noticed (who
hasn't) that Escape doesn't activate Cancel. I think it should, but the
HIG doesn't say so that I can find. In fact, it doesn't say boo about
escape except wrt to mouse actions, of all things.

I hadn't seen this project mentioned here. I thought anyone interested in
