This version fixes some minor typos and bugs in ttfm.sh and X modules,
and the ghostscript6.ttfm module was also added. The new module is to
be used along with the forthcoming zh-ghostscript6 and zh-enscript. It
can also be used as a CID font manager. Relative info can be found at:

The new GS6 module is written with Japan/Korean in mind, meaning there
are some barebones for identifying/using Japan/Korean TTF/CIDs.
TODO modules:
* Abiword
* ChiTeX
* CID for XFree86-4
* CJK
* cwTeX
* GS5.5/vflib
A True Type Font Manager that handles true type font installation,
uninstallation, list, and default font setting. It was originally
in the CLE Linux distribution, modified by Cheng Yuan-Chung from
Joerg Pommnitz's ttmkfdir, to have Big5/GB TTF better detection.
There are four modules as of version 0.9.0 for their respective apps:
chitex: For ChiTeX, a Chinese TeX/LaTeX
ttf2pk: Generate pk/tfm for CJK
xfreetype: For Xfsft in XFree86 3.3.x and "freetype" module in 4.x
xttfm: For X-TT in XFree86 3.3.x and "xtt" module in 4.x, available
in both tcl and sh versions.
Since ChiTeX hasn't been ported yet, CJK needs further tuning, only
xfreetype & xttfm are available right now. Future applications which
uses TTF(like ghostscript) should use TTFM to manage TTF. The importing
of this port also implies existing ports like arphicttf/moettf should
be re-written.
