* Initial Greek translation.
* Add a pane to the Preference dlg allowing user to control some of fontforge's
hint creation.
* Update my opentype scripts list (in particular include music).
* Due to a typo, ff thought pretty much everything outside unicode BMP was in
the hebrew script.
* Add a new command to the point menu which allows you to specify a spline and
one coordinate (either X or Y) on that spline. FF will calculate the other
coordinate and add a point there.
* CODE2000 contains an anchor class with only base glyphs (no mark glyphs) as
part of a set of anchor classes. FF crashed.

PKGLOCALEDIR and which install their locale files directly under
${PREFIX}/${PKGLOCALEDIR} and sort the PLIST file entries. From now
on, pkgsrc/mk/plist/plist-locale.awk will automatically handle
transforming the PLIST to refer to the correct locale directory.

* FF failed to output lookups in the right order for the GSUB table.
* FF would crash when attempting to generate a font which had no familyname
* FF could be built agains ft2.2 only if the debugger were being built.
Make it work always.
* Patch by Mike Frysinger from gentoo. Use the HOME environment variable in
preference to /etc/passwd.
* Write sfddiff as a fontforge script and put it back into the install process.
* Add code to font compare so it can do the old sfddiff --merge option.
* Someone wanted acorn2sfd! Make it compile again.
* Make configure look for libgif

* Use freetype's FT_Outline_Get_Bitmap to make freetype rasterize from our internal data structures. Use freetype by default for the fontview and metricsview (except in some cases).
* The bitmap dlg didn't work for multilayered fonts when told to use freetype to rasterize.
* If we had a contour nested inside another, and did an Overlap Exclude with the nested contour selected, then that contour was not excluded.
* The []Correct Direction check box when importing PostScript, didn't do anything. (or rather it did, but got overrulled later)
* In bitmap only fonts, bitmaps created without moving the width line would get lost.
* Added a scripting command "SelectByColor"
* Don't apply transformations to glyphs which aren't worth outputting
* Moving control points with the get point info command had problems in quadratic splines.
* When adding type42 support I broke multiple master support.
* Werner provided a patch to add a trailing newline to my type1 fonts.
* Support for PaintType==2 and stroked fonts.
* Various problems with the clustering command
* Oops, somehow a patch reverted and things didn't work on systems without iconv
* worked on a couple of other configuration problems for the mac
* Some people install libraries without headers. Be prepared.
* Uniscribe (MS unicode text layout routines) may ignore either the GPOS or the GSUB table depending on the script, and may even refuse to use the font at all if it doesn't have the right stuff in GPOS/GSUB. A Hebrew font must have both a GPOS and a GSUB. If it doesn't the font is not used. A latin font need not have either, but if it doesn't have GSUB then GPOS won't be used.

* CapsLock now makes the arrow keys scroll in the outline view
* We lost count of hints when generating type2 fonts in glyphs with references
to something containing hints which did not overlap. If we were unlucky,
<new-cnt+7>/8 was different than <real-cnt+7>/8 and we ended up with garbage
in the charstring.
* Add a TeX table to contain TeX metrics.
* TFM output was wrong. the TFtoPL doc says "reencoding with original encoding
could create a glyph table one too small resulting in writing/reading garbage
and an eventual crash.
* KANOU fixed a couple of problems in reading glyph names from bdf fonts.
* KANOU needed to disambiguate between "Point" a unit of measurement and
"Point" a geometric object.

* Ah, windows pfm files expect the metrics to be output in win latin encoding
order, not in the encoding defined by the pfb file. (Actually there are other
posibilities for encoding, but as none is documented, I must ignore them).
* ReplaceWithReference broke at some point
* Add an argument-pair to the ReplaceWithReference() scripting command to allow
the user to specify the amount of error that will be accepted.
* When generating a Type1 font, if a glyph had a single reference to a glyph not
in adobe encoding, and that glyph itself had a single reference (in adobe enc)
and some splines, then ff would make a reference to the ref in adobe enc and
ignore the splines.
* Upgrade to Adobe-Japan1-6
* Various fixes to svg output
* Ghost hints could get outside a glyphs bounding box in a type2 font.
* The generated truetype unique id string had an off by one error in the month
* Add support for dashed lines in multilayered mode
* In Full Page Glyph printing, the glyph was offset slightly from where it
should have been.
* Pasting a reference into a multi-layered font produced a very odd layer
* ff didn't update the metrics view if the user pasted the selection with the
middle mouse button.
* if a character were not in the current encoding then ff would not display it
in the metrics view (even if it were in the font)
* Make the behavior of control points at the ends of open paths more reasonable
* The Point->Curve command did not adust control points correctly
* The View->Display Substitutions had numerous problems
* Fix several problems from unicode unification of accents. Many characters
which are said to be based on cedilla actually use a comma, other characters
said to be carons also use comma. Make the n-with-apostrophe character be
treated as an accented letter.
* Werner points out that straight lines should generally not be simplified (as
they will no longer be straight afterwards). Add this knowledge to the
simplify command.

Changes 20041115:
* If ff started without a prefs file, then creating a new font would crash
* If a copyright string contained a newline then ff would generate bad
postscript
* If user added a comment to an empty glyph then the comment wasn't saved in
the sfd file.
* If ff saved a utf7 string to an sfd file (ttf names, etc.) and that string
contained a hyphen that followed immediately after something that needed to
be encoded in base64, then the hyphen would be lost.
* new french UI
* ff was (usually) setting the ascent/descent fields of the 'hhea' table to 0.
When the font was drawn on the mac it was clipped to nothing.
