This manual page barely scratches the surface of this +library. + +.SH DATATYPES + +.B XftPattern +holds a set of names with associated value lists; each name refers to a +property of a font. XftPatterns are used as inputs to the matching code as +well as holding information about specific fonts. + +.B XftFont +contains general font metrics and a pointer to either the core XFontStruct +data or a structure holding FreeType and X Render Extension data. + +.B XftFontStruct +contains information about FreeType fonts used with the X Render Extension. + +.B XftFontSet +contains a list of XftPatterns. Internally Xft uses this data structure to +hold sets of fonts. Externally, Xft returns the results of listing fonts in +this format. + +.B XftObjectSet +holds a set of names and is used to specify which fields from fonts are +placed in the the list of returned patterns when listing fonts. + +.B XftDraw +is an opaque object which holds information used to render to an X drawable +using either core protocol or the X Rendering extension. + +.SH FUNCTIONS +.nf +XftFont * +XftFontOpen (Display *dpy, int screen, ...); +.fi +.B XftFontOpen +takes a list of pattern elements of the form (field, type, value) terminated +with a 0, matches that pattern against the available fonts and opens the +matching font. +.PP +Example: +.br + font = XftFontOpen (dpy, scr, + XFT_FAMILY, XftTypeString, "charter", + XFT_SIZE, XftTypeDouble, 12.0); +.PP +This opens the charter font at 12 points. The point size is automatically +converted to the correct pixel size based on the resolution of the monitor. +.PP +.nf +void +XftTextExtents8 (Display *dpy, + XftFont *font, + unsigned char *string, + int len, + XGlyphInfo *extents); +.fi +.B XftTextExtents8 +computes the pixel extents of "string" when drawn with "font". +.PP +.nf +XftDraw * +XftDrawCreate (Display *dpy, + Drawable drawable, + Visual *visual, + Colormap colormap); +.fi +.B XtDrawCreate +creates a structure that can be used to render text and rectangles +to the screen. +.PP +.nf +void +XftDrawString8 (XftDraw *d, + XRenderColor *color, + XftFont *font, + int x, + int y, + unsigned char *string, + int len); +.fi +.B XftDrawString8 +draws "string" using "font" in "color" at "x, y". +.PP +.nf +void +XftDrawRect (XftDraw *d, + XRenderColor *color, + int x, + int y, + unsigned int width, + unsigned int height); +.fi +.B XftDrawRect +fills a solid rectangle in the specified color. +.SH XftConfig +The +.B XftConfig +file contains configuration information for the Xft library consisting of +directories to look at for font information as well as instructions on +editing program specified font patterns before attempting to match the +available fonts. +.PP +.nf +config : "dir" STRING + | "include" STRING + | "includeif" STRING + | "match" tests "edit" edits + ; +test : qual FIELD-NAME COMPARE CONSTANT + ; +qual : "any" + | "all" + ; +edit : FIELD-NAME ASSIGN expr SEMI + ; +.fi +.PP +STRINGs are double-quote delimited. FIELD-NAMEs are identifiers, +ASSIGN is one of "=", "+=" or "=+". expr can contain the usual +arithmetic operators and can include FIELD-NAMEs. +.PP +"dir" adds a directory to the list of places Xft will look for fonts. +There is no particular order implied by the list; Xft treats all fonts about +the same. +.PP +"include" and "includeif" cause Xft to load more configuration parameters +from the indicated file. "includeif" doesn't elicit a complaint if the file +doesn't exist. If the file name begins with a '~' character, it refers to a +path relative to the home directory of the user. +.PP +If the tests in a "match" statement all match a user-specified pattern, the +pattern will be edited with the specified instructions. +.PP +Where ASSIGN is "=", the matching value in the pattern will be replaced by +the given expression. "+="/"=+" will prepend/append a new value to the list +of values for the indicated field. + +.SH RESTRICTIONS +.B Xft +will probably change radically in the future; weak attempts will be made to +retain some level of source-file compatibility. + +.SH AUTHOR +Keith Packard |
