Hi there,
I am using nano-X with freetype-2.1.4 on an small embedded system.
IIUC then when a font is used for the first time, the font file is read and all
the characters are rendered by freetype into small bitmaps.
Unfortunatly this takes very very long. Especially when I am using several fonts
at the same time. (Once the fonts are loaded its fast.)
Now my quetsion is if we could use some kind of cache mechanism in nano-X. I
thought freetype knows about font chaching...
Thanks!
