Hi,

>psd->DrawText, but the above changes should be fairly portable.
I've sent Greg patches to implement hardware-specific text drawing. I
used the psd->DrawArea entrypoint, but it's the same idea. I did this
because I wanted *real* anti-aliased text - i.e. drawing using an 8-bit
alpha map. Without hardware-specific code, performance would seriously
suck. While I was at it, I also implemented hardware-specific support
for drawing mono bitmaps. If you want my patches, just ask.
Kind regards,
Jon Foster
