[Devel] Underline and Strike thru

[shani]

Hi Leonard Rosenthol,

I tried to reach you via hotmail but it got bouced back to me. ... So
hopefully, this will reach you. Yes please send me the code fragment 
for underlining and strikethru. Could you or any one also tell me how I
could add/modify the contours of the glyph itself ( Is this possible ).
This way I could have underlined text even on curved paths or I could get
the glyph to morph to the base line etc. Any ideas. 

I have one more question and that is how to get unicode/multi byte chars
sets working thru FT. I have set the encoding style and selected the code
page but haven't had much success. The same goes for Hi Ascii char sets 
such as ( on notepad <ALT>0241  -- tilda over n ). What must I setup in
what order ... ?

Thanks for your help.
