RE: [ft] Questions with freetype

[Erik Möller]

Pseudo-code has never been my thing and it wasn't really practical to send
my font system, so here's 300 lines of fresh c++ source:

http://www.timetrap.se/post_images/small_font_test.cpp
http://www.timetrap.se/post_images/small_font_test_output.png

This is hopefully a to the point sample that shows how to render a colored
glyph with a differently colored outline to a memory buffer. It dumps the
result out as a tga to disc.

Werner, I know the info on this topic is pretty sparse (or at least it was
when I tried to figure it out a while back) so if you could check it out,
maybe tidy it up a bit and make this sample available in some freetype
documentation I'm sure it'd help a lot of people...plus that'd make my two
hours of typing worthwhile. 
It's too bad this whole "for the good of mankind" thing don't feed your
kids.

Indeed.  If you want to hide details, some pseudo-code would be also
very helpful.
