It doesn't currently contain information about internals, but is more concentrated on usage of the API. In order to make GRUB 2's video subsystem more flexible, there is a need to modify font manager in order to support more variety of different character types. I already tested it with one idea and it seems to work nicely, but in order to support more character types I think someone else have to give some comments about how glyph's should be defined. Anyway, here is first draft and I would like to get some comments about i= t: http://jumi.lut.fi/~vjaaskel/grub2/ btw. There will be some network reconfigurations in beginning of next week, so that site could be unavailable for some time. Thanks, Vesa J=C3=A4=C3=A4skel=C3=A4inen
