RE: [Freeglut-developer] Issues for Release Candidate 2

Steve,

	Regarding the font issue ... how about we modify the "SFG_Font"
structure to make it match the GLUT font structure?  I'll look into it.

Yes - see my previous mail for a (sort of) explanation.

The fix *looks* simple - but is deceptively messy.

In freeglut_font.c we have to create a structure *IDENTICAL* to the one
GLUT uses for font storage.  We won't be USING that structure - but it's
needed for binary compatibility on Christopher's machine?!?
