pharo-pango

A library to manage pango fonts within Pharo

Usage

This is made for macOS for the moment (adding linux and windows support should be trivial).

Prerequisites

you need to have pango installed on your system:

macOS: sudo port install pango
linux: ...
windows: ...

Installing

Metacello new 
	repository: 'github://estebanlm/pharo-pango/src';
	baseline: 'Pango';
	load.

WARNING: Since this is just an experiment and it uses cairo as backend, you need to modify CairoLibrary to point to the same version of cairo pango uses. In macOS, I made this:

CairoLibrary>>macModuleName
	^ '/opt/local/lib/libcairo.dylib'

Trying it
