Re: [Denemo-devel] binreloc for mingw builds?

[Jeremiah Benham]

I found documentation for AddFontResource here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd183326%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

I see it called in add_font_directory() and add_font_file()

I always see this error when launching denemo no matter if the fonts show up or not!:

Denemo - CRITICAL: Could not find feta.ttf
Denemo - CRITICAL: Could not find Denemo.ttf
Denemo - CRITICAL: Could not find emmentaler.ttf

I just created a patch in attempt to remedy the above. I will rebuild now and test it.

I've tested it in Vista on a machine that previously had Denemo
installed, and it was able to find the fonts from the previous
installation (presumably in C:\Windows\Fonts)

Is there a standard install-a-font thing in windows? I don't know of
one, but I think if a user clicks on a font then windows might offer to
install it (???)
Is there a private-to-the-user font thing on windows? There is the code

#ifdef G_OS_WIN32
  AddFontResource (fontpath);
#endif
which is in utils.c does this set fontpath to the USB memory stick if
that is where the binary is?
