Bug#306119: ITP: gwaterfall -- View all characters of font in all sizes
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Ognyan Kulev <ogi@fmi.uni-sofia.bg>
* Package name : gwaterfall
Version : 0.1
Upstream Author : Noah Levitt <nlevitt@columbia.edu>

Description : View all characters of font in all sizes
With gwaterfall, you can browse characters of font in different
rendering configurations. There is line for each font size from 5px
to 36px -- thus the name "waterfall". The following parameters can
be changed and view is updated immediately on screen: font size range
and increment, hinting, autohinting, anti-aliasing, subpixel
smoothing, and aspect.
Upstream has named binary as waterfall, but CVS module is gwaterfall
because there is older waterfall module. I named package as gwaterfall
to avoid confusion with original program written by Keith Packard.
I have written manual page for Debian.
Both package description and manual page need review by native speaker.
