ClearType "Technology" Demo
Martin Hock writes "
This guy, Steve Gibson, who is phat enough to write
everything in assembly language, but not phat enough to
run Linux, has created a nifty freeware (beer, not speech)
program for Windoze called Free &
Clear that demos the way Microsoft's ClearType "may" work
by employing color fringing. Only interesting if you have
a color LCD display, or possibly if you have an extremely precise
aperture grill. On my Libretto, it's pretty funky fresh.
He claims that it works with Virtual PC, but I'd be
impressed if someone got it to work under Wine, because we
all know how much X loves fonts... I've given it a quick
spin with the Non-Emulator myself and it looks trashy. "
Is anyone up to porting this bugger? The page is excellent
because it explains all sorts of interesting things
about the technology in question, including the fact that it
has been around for 22 years longer than Microsoft
seems to want us to believe.
