Read the files `docs/INSTALL*` for installation instructions; see the
|
|
|
|
|
file `docs/LICENSE.TXT` for the available licenses.

For using FreeType's git repository instead of a distribution bundle,
|
2022-05-18 07:06:58 +02:00
|
|
|
please read file `README.git`. Note that you have to actually clone
|
|
|
|
|
the repository; using a snapshot will not work (in other words, don't
|
|
|
|
|
use gitlab's 'Download' button).

The FreeType 2 API reference is located in directory `docs/reference`;
|
|
|
|
|
use the file `index.html` as the top entry point. [Please note that
|
|
|
|
|
currently the search function for locally installed documentation
|
|
|
|
|
doesn't work due to cross-site scripting issues.]

terse message that only says 'it doesn't work'.
