Notes for VMS created on 22 December 2008 -removed the "porting library", since it seems to be corrupt for new versions of the CRTL. Now VMS-file names are not translated to "unix-style" and vice versa. Only "unix-style is alolowed for the moment. To force CRTL routines to return "unix-style" filenames one has to define DECC$FILENAME_UNIX_REPORT to ENABLE, before running fontforge. i.e. $ define DECC$FILENAME_UNIX_REPORT ENABLE $ fontforge $ deass DECC$FILENAME_UNIX_REPORT Notes for VMS created on 17 November 2005 Compilation : -use MMS or MMK in the main directory (the one containing this file) -Ignore all messages about undefined symbols during linking of the shareable images. I have no idea how to supress them. To use : -the file [.libs]libfontforge.exe should be in a directory defined by the logical SYS$SHARE. So either copy it to it or redefine it i.e.: assign dev:[fontforge.fontforge.fontforge.libs],sys$sysroot:[syslib] sys$share -To use the plugins (an example is in the [.plugins] directory) you have to create a logical FONTFORGE$PLUGINS pointing to all directories to be scanned for plugins i.e. define/job/trans=(concealed)/nolog fontforge$plugins dev:[fontforge.fontforge.fontforge.plugins.] Note that the final "." before the "]" is essential. Note that both logicals FONTFORGE$PLUGINS and SYS$SHARE can be defined system-wide, for a group of users or for a single user only.
