[fontforge-users] Announcing - LibUniNamesList 8.0_beta 20150511

[Jose Da Silva]

For anyone interested in trying-out unicode NamesList 8.0_beta (before it
is released in June), you may want to download the ZIP file located in this
branch directory here:
https://github.com/fontforge/libuninameslist/tree/NamesList_8.0_beta
(select the Download ZIP button on the page).

File is:
https://github.com/fontforge/libuninameslist/archive/NamesList_8.0_beta.zip

This update maintains the existing library 0.4 version, and will reply as
version 7.9 (not 8.0).

To build this library, you will need to run:
autoreconf -i
automake

before you can run these steps:
./configure ( optional --enable-frenchlib still at ver7.0)
make
sudo make install



Files installed are:
/usr/local/lib/libuninameslist.0.4.*
/usr/local/include/uninameslist.h

...if you choose "./configure --enable-frenchlib" then added files are:
/usr/local/lib/libuninameslist-fr.0.4.*
/usr/local/include/uninameslist-fr.h


Thanks,
Joe
