This patch adds an API call to BFont, called LoadFont, that takes a string path to a font file. The user fonts are managed via a new class called AppFontManager that inherits from the base class FontManagerBase but adds the methods to add and remove user fonts from disk or memory. There is also a new method called UnloadFont to remove a user font, but on exit of an app all user fonts should be automatically cleaned up. Global/system fonts are managed by the GlobalFontManager, which is a new class that also inherits from the base class FontManagerBase, replacing the old "FontManager" class. A maximum of 128 user fonts may be loaded, and memory fonts may not exceed 20MB. There's also an overloaded version of LoadFont that accepts an area_id and loads the font from memory. A size and offset may optionally be provided to allow for an area that contains more than just a font.

Haiku
Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs
Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.
Goals
- Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
- Clean, clear, concise code.
- Unified desktop environment.
Trying Haiku
Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.
Compiling Haiku
See ReadMe.Compiling.
Contributing
Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!
