LLM code gen, presumably

- andsoitis 2y agoThe poster wrote “RAD development”, which implies highly visual development environments for making client side apps eg for desktop , mobile, or web. Xft is a library that draws text and graphics. That’s what I thought the poster referred to because in the article the text rendering is pretty poor. Addressing font rendering is critical to get perfect for a RAD / visual development tool. So I also think the poster’s statement is ambiguous.
- anthk 2y agoNo. TTF/OTF support for widgets.
- skissane 2y agoI assume you meant to write "XTF" (where X=T or O) not "XFT" then. Although even then, using XTF as an abbreviation for TTF/OTF is highly nonstandard. Those four extra characters greatly increase the likelihood that you'll be understood
- anthk 2y agoXFT it's the tecnology from X11 which allows antialiased fonts among FreeType. Add that support and you'll magically have proper fonts (and full Unicode ones) instead of the old, aliased, locale bound ones.
- skissane 2y agoYou confuse people when you write it as XFT, when the correct capitalisation is Xft: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xft https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xft Also, you said: > Add XFT support and this language would be cool to have a fast RAD development with easy crosscompilation. Xft only works on X11, whereas "easy crosscompilation" suggests an interest in supporting multiple platforms, which normally includes platforms that don't use X11 (macOS, iOS, Android, Windows, even Linux with Wayland)
