The release version of gbdfed is available at http://crl.nmsu.edu/~mleisher/gbdfed.html. The primary changes from the beta version are: 1. By request, added back in support for creating/editing 2, 4, and 8 bits per pixel gray scale fonts. 2. Fixed several dialog problems. The documentation hasn't been properly edited yet, but that will come in patches as I have time to do it. PS: if there is anyone out there that actually used xmbdfed to create grayscale fonts, you will notice gbdfed does things differently. The color values are now indexes between 1 and 2^bpp - 1 in ascending order instead of 16-bit gray values in descending order. Your glyphs may look inverted. If this is the case, let me know and I will provide a program to convert your grayscale fonts to the new system. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark Leisher Computing Research Lab A sneer is the weapon of the weak.
