FreeType 2 is a software font engine that is designed to be small, efficient,
highly customizable, and portable while capable of producing high-quality output
(glyph images). It can be used in graphics libraries, display servers, font
conversion tools, text image generation tools, and many other products as well.

Note that FreeType 2 is a font service and doesn't provide APIs to perform
higher-level features like text layout or graphics processing (e.g., colored
text rendering, `hollowing', etc.). However, it greatly simplifies these tasks
by providing a simple, easy to use, and uniform interface to access the content
of font files.

FreeType 2 is released under two open-source licenses: our own BSD-like FreeType
License and the GPL. It can thus be used by any kind of projects, be they
proprietary or not.

The AmigaOS build system has been updated to be distributable.
