removed the file <freetype/internal/ftlist.h> and corrected

files that depended on it.

the ftlist.c function definitions are now FT_EXPORT_DEF
instead of FT_BASE_DEF

<h3>
IV.1 Can I use FreeType to draw text on a pixmap with arbitratry depth ?
</h3>
<p>No directly, as FreeType is a font library, not a general purpose
graphics library or text rendering service. However, note that the
anti-aliased renderer allows you to convert a vectorial glyph outline
into a list of "spans" (i.e. horizontal pixel segments with same coverage)
that can be rendered through user-provided callbacks.</p>
<p>By providing the appropriate span callback, you can render anti-aliased
text to any kind of surface. You can also use any color or fill
pattern/image if you want to. This process is called
<em>direct rendering</em>. For more information, please read the
documentation contained in the following files:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>
<b><tt>&lt;freetype/ftimage.h&gt;</tt></b> contains the definition
of the <tt>FT_Raster_Params</tt> type used with direct rendering.
</p></li>
<li><p>
<b><tt>&lt;freetype/ftoutln.h&gt;</tt></b> contains the definition
of the <tt>FT_Outline_Render</tt> function that can be used to
convert vectorial outlines to span lists.
</p></li>
</ul>
<p>Here's some code that uses them:</p>
<font color="blue"><pre>
FT_Raster_Params params;
FT_Outline outline;
.. load vectorial glyph in "outline"
params.flags = ft_raster_flag_aa | ft_raster_flag_direct;
params.gray_spans = (FT_Raster_Span_Func)your_own_span_function_here;
params.user = your_own_data_pointer;
error = FT_Outline_Render( library, &amp;outline, &amp;params );
</pre></font>
<p>Note that direct rendering is <em>not</em> available with monochrome
output, as the current renderer uses a two-pass algorithm to generate
glyphs with correct drop-out control.</p>

<h3>
IV.2 How can I set the color of text rendered by FreeType ?
</h3>
<p>Basically, you can't do that, because FreeType is simply a font
library. In general, you'll need to use your favorite graphics library
to draw the FreeType glyphs with the appropriate color.</p>
<p>Note that for anti-aliased glyphs, you can "set the color" by using
<em>direct rendering</em> as described in <a href="#other-depth">this
answer</a></p>
<hr>
<a name="other-size">
<h3>
IV.3 I set the pixel size to 8x8, but the resulting glyphs are larger
(or smaller) than that. Why ??
</h3>
<p>A lot of people have a hard time understanding this topic, because
they think of glyphs as fixed-width/height "cells", like those of
fonts used in terminals/consoles. This assumption is simply not valid
with most "modern" font formats, even bitmapped-based ones like
PCF or BDF.</p>
<p>Be aware that the <em>character size</em> that is set either through
<tt>FT_Set_Char_Size</tt> or <tt>FT_Set_Pixel_Sizes</tt> isn't directly
related to the dimension of the glyph bitmaps generated.</p>
<p>Rather, the character size is indeed the size of
<em>an abstract square</em>, called the <em>EM</em>, used by typographers
to design fonts. Scaling two distinct fonts to the same character size, be
it expressed in points or pixels, will generally result in bitmaps with
<em>distinct dimensions</em> !</p>
<p>Note that historically, the EM corresponded to the width of a capital
"M" in Latin typefaces. However, later improvements in typography led to
the designs that greatly detract from this rule. Today, it is not possible
to connect the EM size to a specific font "feature" in a reliable way.</p>

IV.4 How can I compute the bounding box of a given string of text without
