[Fontforge-devel] Remove overlap

[George W. <gw...@si...>]

I have once again rewritten the Remove Overlap command (and all its
cousins).

It appears to be much stabler. I haven't had any crashes from it for a
while.

Aside from that, I'm not sure it produces better results, but at least
it doesn't crash on failure. (or I think it doesn't).

I have also changed the behavior slightly so that it is more similar to
other commands.

>From the fontview everything works as before, but from the character
view only contours which contain selected points are handled by remove
overlap (or intersect or find intersections. The Exclude command works
as before (selected contours remove anything within them)). If nothing
is selected, then the entire glyph will be handled.

This is the way most other commands behave in the character view.

The new version is in the cvs tree. I shall post a new build shortly.
