RE: [ft-devel] we don't need both FT_CONFIG_OPTION_POSTSCRIPT_NAMES and FT_CONFIG_OPTION_NO_POSTSCRIPT_NAMES

[Graham Asher]

Werner,

I'll prepare a patch if I have time, and indeed install GNU diff if I can
find it and understand yet another utility... but it's a miracle I have time
to post anything back to the FreeType list actually. Personally I find
narrative interspersed with snippets easier to follow than diff runes, but
my mileage not only varies but is obviously widely divergent and possibly
even perpendicular to other peoples'.

But I remain, as for a decade now, in your debt as a grateful FreeType user.

Best regards,

Graham

Please prepare a patch -- there are other #ifdefs there which could be
used to limit the scope.

PS: BTW, what about installing GNU diff on your platform?  This would
    *greatly* simplify your reports.
