waterfall - view all characters of font in all sizes
SYNOPSIS
waterfall [OPTION]...
DESCRIPTION
With waterfall, 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". 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.
OPTIONS
waterfall doesn't have own options but all GTK and GDK options are recognized.
AUTHOR
This program is written by Noah Levitt. It uses GTK+ 2 and Xft libraries and is improved version over Keith Packard's waterfall program
that uses X Athena Widgets library (Xaw) for user interface. Both programs are written in 2003.
This manual page is written by Ognyan Kulev <ogi@fmi.uni-sofia.bg> for the Debian project.
