PortSystem 1.0

Name: Xft2
Version: 2.1.14
Category: x11
Maintainers: jeremyhu
Description: client-side font API for X applications
Long Description: The current version of Xft provides a client-side font API for X applications. It uses Fontconfig to select fonts and the X protocol for rendering them. When available, Xft uses the Render extension to accelerate text drawing. When Render is not available, Xft uses the core protocol to draw client-side glyphs. This provides completely compatible support of client-side fonts for all X servers.
