Perhaps what we need is a better sorting mechanism for FcFontSort. What we want is for the list to include fonts that cover the specified language(s) to be at the front of the list, and for the remaining elements of the list to be sorted without regard to language. That seems doable, but it may make FcFontSort even slower than it is today. -keith -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
