RE: [ft-devel] ft-smooth for 2.1.10?

Bonjour David,

thanks for this elaborate update. This explains it to me clearly,
except for one little issue:

Now, there is also the compile-time configuration from ftconfig.h which
confuses me a bit in combination with the above:

Does any of the LIGHT options force the auto-hinter being used (when it
is compiled in), or does the LIGHT flag *only* work when the auto-hinter
is selected by other means already?

The latter might explain why I am not seeing a difference in my test
app.

Leon.
