e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people who are no longer maintaining those ports.

Font::TTFMetrics encapsulates the font metrics of a true type font file. A
|
|
true type font file contains several tables which need to be parsed before
|
|
any useful information could be gathered about the font. There is the
|
|
excellent module for parsing TTF font in CPAN by Martin Hosken, Font::TTF.
|
|
But in my opinion the use of Font::TTF requires intimate knowledge of TTF
|
|
font format. This module was written to support the use of TTF in Pastel
|
|
2D graphics library in Perl. Three factors prompted me to write this
|
|
module: first, I required a fast module to access TTF file. Second, all
|
|
the access required was read-only. Last, I wanted a user friendly, higher
|
|
level API to access TTF file.
