There seem to have been a number of attempts at implementing a Python
binding for FreeType. Let me offer my effort:
<https://github.com/ldo/python_freetype>.
What’s good about this one:
* High-level Pythonic wrapper classes (that means you never have to
explicitly free anything)
* High-level Vector and Matrix types taking advantage of Python
operator overloading to provide functional constructs
* Can render bitmaps and outline paths to Pycairo
* Can use Fontconfig pattern strings to find fonts
Anyway, suggestions for improvement, bug reports, and general comments
welcome.
